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.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Continue it and nothing much necessary to do for that lets wait for 2-3 days because that's likely due to viral infection and it generally take 3-5 days to recovery.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
