I'm feeling some pain on the left side of my chest. It's not constant, and sometimes it just goes away on its own. I'm kinda worried about what this could mean or if I should be concerned. Any ideas on what might be going on?

I'm experiencing some pain in the area inside my ribs on both sides, especially under my left breast and there's some noticeable swelling too. It's been going on for a few days now. My breathing is generally normal, but sometimes it feels like I have to make an effort to take deeper breaths. I'm getting a bit worried about what might be causing this.
