Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Suggest Treatment For Severe Chest Pain And Cough Due To Pneumonia
I had pneumonia and really coughed hard for 2 or 3 weeks. Now there is severe pain under breast area, like ribs? when I lay on back and sit, if not upright. Deep breathing hurts also. Can t wear a bra as it is too tight. Mostly is hurts all of the time, but severe when laying down.
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, this could be muscular pain and this could be due to cough because while coughing it exert the force and this affect the muscle and this could cause spams, but it is advisable to get done the x-ray of chest for safe side, for the pain you can try "Tab Codeine" this would suppress the cough too, hope this information helps, take care.
