Is Recordial Catch Syndrome Caused By Smoking Too Much Weed?

Is recordial catch syndrome caused by smoking to much weed and hunching over a lot? I do not have good posture and have been smoking to much weed lately. I have lay on the floor and put a book under my back and proceed to clicking my back and my chest when i feel uncomfortable. Im 6 2, 22 years 195lbs. I do not feel much pain, I just feel extremely uncomfortable often. Im trying to figure out what this is?

Hi,

There is no association between smoking weed and Precordial Catch Syndrome(PCS). Pain in PCS is due to breathing in and out and on bending forward. You should go for a CT thorax to rule out other causes. As such there is no cure for PCS.
