Another possibility is costochondritis. It is essentially inflamation of the rib cage(tendons). I have this in my sternum(center of my chest) and it is generally a dull ache but it can get a little more intense when I cough hard. I take 800mg of ibuprofen every morning to help with the pain. I have had this for about 10yrs now and while it can be a nuisance it hasn't created any other problems(at least that I am aware of).
