Sharp Shooting pain under left rib cage...?

Lately, I have been getting this sharp shooting pain in the left side of my chest under my ribs, especially when I breathe in deeply. Even when I bend a certain way. It started about 2 days ago, comes and goes periodically. Does anyone know what this could be from and if it is serious?

    I have had this sometimes, it is caused by anxiety; but if it persists a doctors appointment should be made.

    I get this same pain too and looked it up once...it's caused by strained muscles in your chest.

    It sounds like you should make a doctor's appointment.

    If you haven't already died from a heart attack, please go to the hospital now. I hope you're ok.
