Hello Gentleman
Your consolidation resolved within 14 days ( according to you ) and still pain present . Your doctor termed it as muscular pain and prescribed DEFCORT 30 mg .
But in my opinion this is not the best medicine because defcort is a steroid and this is not a treatment .
In my opinion first of all get in MRI of chest to rule out any chest infection for thickened pleura as this is most common cause of pain in the chest after consolidation .
Livebest is a herbal product and a supplement .
It might happen that you get time being relief with defcort but still I INSIST that consult another PHYSICIAN or chest specialist and get his opinion.
Good luck.
