What Causes Pain On Left Side Of Chest Followed By Farting?

I felt pain on my left chest all of a sudden. It came and go for 10-15 seconds, then I farted 2 or 3 times and went away. I have had some chest pain before followed by farting and went away too, but this pain I just had is like a thorn sticking off and on. What is it?
