Hi well come to HCM.
hyper inflated lungs are seen obstruction of bronchi due to bronchial asthma.bronchiti,
emphysema etc. It suggests retension of air in lungs during normal breathing activit.
It can give you pain secondary to stain on respiratory muscles because of stranious
breathing. Thanks

hi,

welcome to hcm

chest pain may be due to many causes like Acid reflux disease,pericarditis,esophagitis,costochondritis or respiratory infection associated with bronchitis or emphysema. it may be due to repeated cough due to copd which causes the respiratory muscles to get fatigue

you have to consult a chest physician about it. it may be reinfection or simple acid reflux disease

take care
