I have pain on the left side of my chest

Question

Asked for Male, 15 Years

I get pain in the outer left side of my chest. I have had these problems before, but they were always far and few between. Recently it has been happening more frequently. I only have the pain when i take deep breathes or completely empty my lungs. For this reason i fear it may be lung related.
