What Causes Inflamed Left Chest?

I woke up this morning with an inflamed left chest. I am a male 37yrs old healthy. The only thing i think it could be is, i did a chin-up without correct form? Could i have sprained my chest. The only pain i have is like after a workout doing bench press?

Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, you are mostly having musculoskeletal pain due to exercise.
So follow these steps for better symptomatic relief.
1. Avoid heavyweight lifting and strenuous exercise.
2. Avoid bad postures in sleep.
3. Avoid movements causing pain.
4. Take painkiller and muscle relaxant drugs.
5. Apply warm water pad on affected areas.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
