Brief Answer:
Pain could be due to muscle sprain
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for your query.
The pinching pain you have could be due to muscle sprain specially in the intercoastals.
If you have other symptoms like episodic pain, shortness of breath, palpitation, sweating during the pain episodes then getting n EKG would be essential to rule out cardiac arrhythmia.
If EKG appears normal then simple exercise on regular basis would solve the issue soon.
Hope, I answered your query.
Please let me know if there are any other concerns.
