Precordial catch: Precordial catch syndrome is a non-serious condition in which there are sharp stabbing pains in the chest.These typically get worse with breathing in and occur within a small area. Spells of pain usually last less than a few minutes. Typically it begins at rest and other symptoms are absent. The underlying cause is unclear. Pain may be from the chest wall or irritation of an intercostal nerve.
