Suggest Medication For Flu

I ve had the flu for a couple weeks and I pulled a muscle in my back from coughing so much. It hurt all around my side and into the front of my chest. This morning I picked up one of the children I work with (daycare) and felt a poppin in my chest. The pain is much much worse. Even sitting in the car hurts because of the bumps. What do I do??

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
As you describe it appears to be due to the chest infection, and phlegm.The pain could be due to the accumulation of the phlegm in the bronchial tree.
I advise you to consult a chest physician for diagnosis and treatment.
You may need to have an X ray along with other tests for confirmation.
The other causes of the pain could be the muscle twitch,due to defeciency of calcium, and infection.
Avoid taking fruits, juices, ice water, ice cream, and the things allergic to you. And also avoid taking potato,other tubers, tomato,egg, chicken,and sea foods,till the pains are completely cleared.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
