Hi Praku_m2003,
Pain that is made worse by breathing is often related to pleurisy (inflammation of the lining of the lungs). Pleurisy can be triggered by many things including a recent viral infection, other infection or trauma.
Treatment is generally with anti-inflammatories. If you pain is not getting better in the next 1-2 days I would recommend you see your doctor for an evaluation.
Best wishes.
