Pneumothorax: the most obvious diagnosis in this case is pneumothorax. It is diagnosed by physical exam and chest xray. You are the right demographic for this, as a young woman. You should probably get checked for that with your doctor or Emergency Room. Look up Pneumothorax on the internet and see if it matches up with what you have felt.
