How Can Cold And Cough Along With Pain In The Ribcage Be Treated?
I have had a bad cold that began with a Chinese at the back of my neck and shoulders last Wednesday. By Saturday it was a full-fledged cold with runny nose, sneezing, and a bad cough. I m not coughing up phlegm. My lower ribs now hurt from the coughing, though. The runny nose is improving. I ve had no fever and otherwise no body aches. I ve take FloNase each morning and Sudafed during the day.
