Pain (4/10) between 3. and 4. left rib when breathing very deeply or stretching. no dyspnea or any other symptoms. no tenderness. ?

Muscoloskeletal : Pain such as you describe which is more noticeable when having deep breaths or stretching is not heart related. It sounds related to a chest wall problem, which is annoying but not dangerous.
