Having Noticed Constant Pain In Chest After To The Intake Of Prednisone

Hi, I have been quiet sick with rsv and hospitalized with asthma. As a result I have been on prednisone for 4 weeks and now slowly being weaned off. I have developed a constant pain in my chest which radiates to my upper back, a burning in my throat and when I drink hot drinks it burns like crazy. I m still finding a shortness of breath but my lungs are clear. Can you give me some idea of what this is???

You could have developed gastritis due to prednisolone. Take a pan 40 once a day for 2 to 3 weeks. For shortness of breath, take a levolin or aerocort inhaler and also take montair lc for 2 or three weeks.
