What Do Muscle Spasms Under The Left Breast Indicate?

I have what I think are muscle spasms under my left breast in what feels like the inside of my ribcage. All on the upper left side and permeating through the back. It is on the outside of the ribcage - not toward the center (so I don t think it s costochondritis though I m not the doctor). Made worse with deep inhale or movements like standing up or turning. Pain is not sharp or ache-y but feels more like a very uncomfortable hard squeeze. No other symptoms.
