What Causes Weird Sound From Chest Or Mouth When Stretching?

About a month or so ago I started to notice that when I stretched or turned my upper body a weird sound would come out of my mouth or chest area. A sort of losing my breath sound. It has since gotten much worse. Now whenever I move my upper body or even walk at a fast pace and turn it makes the sound. My chest has also kind of started to hurt along with a feeling of a lump in my throat. I have no cough or mucus either. To best describe the sound it makes imagine this. Make a haaaaa sound but without using your vocal chords. When I move it s almost like something is forcing air out of my lungs. It s really starting to scare me and making me have really bad panic attacks

Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your situation and problem.
By your history and description, possibility of musculoskeletal problem is more.
Sudden movement can cause muscle spasm. And if you still continue that movement than bone will move against that spastic muscle.
This process can produce certain sound.
So possibility of this sound is more in your case.. You also feel tightness, this also favours musculoskeletal cause.
So better to avoid movements causing pain. Avoid sudden movements.
Start painkiller and muscle relaxant drugs.. Apply warm water pad on affected areas.
Avoid heavyweight lifting and strenuous exercise.
Get done calcium and vitamin d3 level as deficiency of these can cause similar symptoms.
If deficiency then you need supplements.
Don't worry, you will be alright.
Hope I have solved your query.
Wish you good health. Thanks.
