Hi,
From history it seems that she might be having some heavy strain on chest muscles giving spasms.
But at the same time there is possibility of having some chest muscle damage or fracture of one or more ribs can not ruled out.
Go to ER and get examined and investigations done.
Meanwhile give her some analgesic medicine like ibuprofen.
Ok and take care.
