You may have lung disease so called "pleuritis".It is inflammation of the outer layer of the lung.coverings. The cause of this inflammation is usually an underlying lung disease such as bronchitis or pneumonia or any other lung disease .

I suggest to you to see a health care provider . I your pain gets worse i suggest to you to go to an emergency room. In the mean time you can take Advil tablet.
