I was having an intense wrestling match with my brother and heard a "pop" in my cheat area followed by sharp pain, in bed that night i couldn't turn on my side without causing pain, also found it hard to hold and lift things, also breathing was painful and a cough or a sneeze was extreme. 2 day later pain is there but dim. The bony area in the center of my chest is sore to touch and when pressed is painful. Im a 29 yr old male 60kg and smoker. My question is .... is my injury just a muscle or ligament tear, or is it something more severe? the area is very close to my heart but beating seems regular
 
What you're describing is consistent with an injury to your ribs or the muscles around them. Ribs are there to protect your heart and lungs, unless your brother is in the WWF, or was beating you with a stick, I doubt you could have damaged your heart. And if he did, you'd know it.

You said it's getting better, that's a good sign. If you are still having a significant amount of pain when the weekend is over, you should probably get it checked out. Meanwhile, don't do stuff that hurts.
