Well it's impossible to diagnose you without doing a physical exam, especially because the details you've given are quite vague. I'd find it unlikely you have lung cancer as you do not smoke, don't have a cough, and pain from lung cancer is usually a late presentation. Other than that it's really impossible to say over the internet - I'd say pneumonia or pleurisy are unlikely without a cough, but if it's worrying you go see a doctor. By the way, from what it sounds like I actually think it sounds like you've hurt one of your intercostal muscles. Good luck!

dude.. reply to the following questions.. 1. how did the pain start? suddenly? slowly over a period of time? 2.is the pain of the same intensity wen it started? or.. has it increased or decreased? 3.wat is the character of ur pain? stabbing? dragging? pricking? 4.is the pain radiating to any other part of body? 5.at wat time of day do u experience the pain? morning? evening? or no variation whether its morning or night? 6.can u localise the pain to any particular part of ur chest? or is it diffuse pain? if u can localise , pls mention the location in relation to ur nipple. 7.were u hit by anything or anyone on the region where u experience the pain? 8.have u experienced any unexplained loss of weight or appetite? 9.do u find any lymph nodes enlarged on the sides of ur neck or above the umbilicus? 10.if u cough, did u notice any blood streaks in ur sputum? first of all pls understand that its difficult to diagnose unless n until we see the patient in person n examine him. but i ll try coming to a conclusion if u answer those questions. remember that none can diagnose perfectly without seeing the patient n even if u r diagnosed by anyone who has not seen u in person, understand that its not 100% correct.

For YOUR sake, go to the Physician now. There is no one who can diagnose your problem on answers. The Physician can perform a scan and immediately tell you . If you do have cancer, the sooner you get treatment, the better chances are for a cure.
