Also known as pleurisy, pleuritic pain is best described as an infection somewhere in the lower respiratory area. The infection may be caused by some form of bacteria or virus and in rare cases, pleurisy may become contagious if the condition becomes more severe. The pain usually originates in the small space between the chest wall and the lungs, which is called the pleural cavity. The infection causes inflammation of the thin layers of tissue which cover the chest wall and lungs to rub together and this causes the pleuritic pain which a lot of people are familiar with.
