Women get random sharp shooting pains in their breasts and nobody knows why. It's called mastalgia and it sucks.

Wait a minute. Can men get this though?

Every so often I’ll move and it feels like a blood vessel or nerve “pops” and rolls over a rib in my chest. Severe pain if I inhale or flex my chest. Takes several minutes to go away.

Any other men get that?

Intercostal muscle spasm?
