Brief Answer:
Expectorant

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

The pain in the chest is due to forceful contraction of the chest wall muscles.

There will be no need for any pain killers to alleviate the pin. Reducing the cough by taking expectorants like Syp BROZEDEX 10 ml thrice daily will help.

You can also rub Vicks on your chest which is an irritant and causes pain cough relief too.

Regards,
