A member asked:

I developed a sharp pain on my right side in the back n. hurts to inhale deeply. no cough of fever. happened suddenly?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Inhalation pain: This is probably costochondritis. As long as you do not have pain going to your arm or jaw too it is probably just some inflammation between the rib and the pluera. Did you have a cold in the last few day? Any trauma? You could have pulled a muscle. Take some Motrin 600 mg to 800 mg three times a day for a few days and see if it improves. If it worsens, or does not change in 3 d, see an md.
