What Would Cause Clicking Sound While Breathing After Accidentally Hitting A Door?
About two weeks ago, I turned quickly and walked into a half closed door, hitting it hard. Afterwards, I experienced pain for about a week. Then the pain subsided. Now I hear a light click sound when I inhale and exhale without pain. What could this be.

Hello...
Welcome to healthcare magic.
After injury you have problem of clicking sound while breathing that may be because of sternum injury or cartilage damage.
Consult a doctor for clinical examination of affected site.
Mention any bruishing area at injury site present or not..
X ray help to rule out bony facture or damage.
Treat underling cause.
Get well soon..
Thank you.
