I'm in the military and ended up in Germany about a year and a half ago. Running's always been my thing and I've never had issues with it before. But then last August, out of nowhere, I started feeling this sharp chest pain when I was out on a run. At first, it didn't show up until around three miles in, but now I can't even manage a mile without feeling it. I got an inhaler and it worked at the beginning, but now it seems useless. I'm just 22, and I'm not sure what's going on. Any ideas on what this could be or what I should do next?

I've been dealing with asthma for about 2 years now and recently I've started feeling chest and back pain when I take a deep breath. It's strange because I'm not having any other symptoms and my treatment seems to be going well. I even had a chest x-ray and it didn't show anything unusual. I just can't figure out why this pain happens with deep breaths. Any ideas on what could be causing this?
