Brief Answer:
How id your urination? any fevers? Do you breath okay?

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks so much fir reaching out to us.

I have a couple of questions to ask before being able to provide a comprehensive and personalized response to you.

1. Are you having any fever?
2. Do you have any difficulties breathing?
3. Have you ever had any similar pains in the past?
4. How is you urination.

Pain following a bout of bronchitis is often related to excessive muscle straining. However, you seem to state categorically that it isn't muscular. While this could still be possible, I will like to rule out other possibilities of a kidney or lung infection.

I hope to hear from you at your earliest convenience and promise to get back to you as soon as possible.

I wish you well.

Brief Answer:
I will suggest you get an X-ray of teh chest!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

This pain seems strange. I can see you have been taking some medications for muscular pain with no relief. I will suggest that you get an X-ray of the chest. This will allow us look at the lungs and surrounding soft tissue. Your responses make infectious causes very unlikely as well or possible kidney infection.

Kindly communicate these findings with me.
