You may have pulled the muscle between your ribs (intercaustal?). That makes it hurt to breathe, laugh, cough, walk a certain way etc... it was also tough to sleep too.
It lasted a couple of weeks then went away. I would stretch it out here and there for temporary relief. Can you feel the area of pain? Can you probe it with your fingers?
I'mnot sure how I got it either. The two times I had it, the first was caused by a collision in basketball, the second time I think it may have been dancing to hard (I threw my hands in the air with a little too much exuberance). Not sure though.
