Think I've pulled a muscle in my chest...

It starting hurting when I was doing tricep dips in my circuits class last night - a shooting pain in my sternum like it was imploding. Obviously, didn't keep on doing them, lol.
Not especially worried about it (though intrigued as to how I did it, since I've done very little exercise lately, especially compared to when I was really committed before xmas and doing a lot more), but just not sure how to procede. It's not really an area you can treat like a normal strain, so I was wondering if anyone has experienced this and has any advice basically.
Thanks!

I'm not a doctor, but any unnormal pain around the chest area should be checked out by a professional, in my opinion, just to be safe.0
