Maybe it is!: Many people have small cysts in their lungs which may pop with an injury or strenuous activity. This may lead to a pneumothorax, or free air in the chest, which can feel like small popping as you move around. If this is very new, like in the last day or two, please go to an Emergency Room for evaluation. Otherwise, make an appointment with your Doctor for evaluation.
