Left lung pain

Asked for Female, 31 Years

Since Sunday day I have been experiencing a localized pain in my lower left lung area. It is a constant dull burning pain, very slight, however it becomes a sharp sudden stabbing pain when i cough, sneeze, take really deep breaths or move/lay certain ways. My normal breathing is not affected. I have not experienced any type of trauma to the area either.
