Answer 1

Sometimes you can get a pain in your chest associated with a deep breath. If that's what is happening it's probably due to atelectasis. That occurs when you are at rest and some of the small air sacs in your lungs collapse. Then, when you take a deep breath they suddenly open up and cause a brief sharp pain. This is not considered a serious problem.

sometimes air gets stuck between a lung and the heart or the diaphragm, it is hard to tell with the information you gave, if it goes away after a while, it is probably trapped air.
