What Causes Tenderness In Chest Along With Breathlessness?

I am 35 years old. A female. I have had shortness of breath. I feel I cannot always vet a deep, full breath. My chest cracks and is tender. Right below or around my bra line under my breasts are, I feel uncomfortable and tender also. I yawn a lot. What could this be? The chest cracking scares me, and it burns I guess you could say. It hasn t been a real problem. It was very seldom. Now it has been persistent for the last few months. I can crack my chest often...especially when it feels tight. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Thanks for your consultation at HCM!!!
i have gone through your case and being your physcian i completely understands your health concerns..
I want to ask you whether you have got truma to chest in past ? Is there any associated fever history? is there associated cough?
In my opinion you should get an Xray chest done right now and see your doctor to rule out the common causes like costochondritis , pleurisy etc
Meanwhle take rest avoid vigorous activity and take ACETAMINOPHIN to relieve pain..
Hope your query is adequately answered if u still have any feel free to ask .
