I would love to answer your question here, but I'm not sure exactly what you want to know. 

 

There really are no pain receptors in the lungs, but sometimes when you are working hard to breath you use accessory muscles that are normally not used for respiration.  If your body uses these muscles to breath, they can be sore for a couple days thereafter.  It's kind of like when you work out for the first time in a long time your muscles you used get sore. 

 

Other than that, there really shouldn't be any "hurt" related to asthma.  Yet, there are other lung diseases that can cause pain, so if you have pain that you are concerned about you should give your physician a call.

 

If I didn't provide the answer you were looking for, feel free to ask again.
