Anyone else have sharp chest pain when sneezing?

A few weeks ago, all I was worried about was snissing, but now I get a very sharp chest pain when I sneeze. It's right in the middle of my upper chest and it hurts like hell for 5 seconds during the beginning and middle of the sneeze and then goes away. Luckily I'm only sneezing 2-4 times a day.  I'm going to mention it at my drs visit, but does anyone else experience this?

The middle of your chest is not bone, it's cartlidge. It's made it expend with your breathing, and in pregnancy with the expanding uterus and increased lung capacity.

Likely the sharp feeling you have is the sudden expansion of the chest wall, instead of the gentle expansion in breathing. Also could be costochondritis, inflammation if the cartlidge. But this is more of a constant pain.

It's really more of an annoyance than anything. As long as the pain is intermittent and goes away it should'nt be any issue aside from discomfort.
