Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
As you describe, the chest pressure, and upper back pain,may be due to the congestion of the chest with the phlegm. It also may be due to the gastric irritation.
I advise you to consult a physician for diagnosis and treatment.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms cifixime, phenylephrine, citrizine, ranitidine, and paracetamol.
wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
