Answer 1

It can be a lot of things: cardiovascular, lung, chest wall muscle, gastroesophageal (reflux), other. You may have a health condition that needs to be addressed or just bad posture and exercise habits.

It should not be addressed here.  See a doctor.

Answer 2

the best think to do is to get checked by a doctor but i think it might be the food you eat ,contracting muscle or Stress

Answer 3

that happened to my dad and he had to have heart surgery. you should get that checked out before it gets to bad
