Your symptoms are more characteristic of a musculoskeletal cause in the rib cage or pinched intercostal nerve that runs between 2 ribs. Other causes such as heart,lung or esophageal causes are quite unlikely. Could you have strained or injured your rib cage recently? Any tender spots? If symptoms don't resolve see your physician for evaluation and any appropriate testing.
