Crepitus: If you truly feel like there are bubbles under the skin (like you were running your fingers over rice krispies and it snaps,crackles or pops) and you have been vomiting, or had a cough, you need to go to the ER now. You can rupture the tissue between the lungs and trachea so that air enters under the skin, and this is very serious. If you mean you just feel soft bubble shaped masses, ask again,
