Hi welcome to the health care magic
Here as chest pain, dyspnea and blood tinged sputum present as per your history it is better to rule out cardiac causes first (because no respiratory complaint like cough, fever present)...
-Auscultation
-EKG
-echocardiography if needed
-x ray chest
According to cause specific treatment given
If no cardiac and respiratory cause found than it might be predicted as muscular pain...
Take care
Consult physician or pulmonologoist for examination and further work up accordingly
