Suggest Remedy For Pain In Chest Due To Air Bubble

I have what feels like an air bubble (painful) that moves from my lower back, up along my spine, spreads across my shoulder blades then wraps around to my chest. When it moves to the front, I feel like someone is squeezing my lungs and it is very hard to breathe. Very painful.
