 ==History and Symptoms==
-Sudden [[shortness of breath]], dry coughs, [[cyanosis]] (turning blue) and pain felt in the chest, back and/or arms are the main symptoms. In penetrating chest wounds, the sound of air flowing through the puncture hole may indicate pneumothorax, hence the term "sucking" chest wound.  The flopping sound of the punctured lung is also occasionally heard.
