Hi, thank you for posting.
From what you refer, I think that you suffer from
Spinal osteoarthritis, and your symptoms are not related to your husband's
pneumonia.
To exclude the possibility for Discal hernia you need a vertebral column Ct-scan.
You also need a
blood test and an urine test.
If the test results show that you suffer from Spinal osteoarthritis, then you need non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medicines, such as Meloxicam 15mg 1 pill a day, for 10 days.
For the inflammation on left side under the breast, it is caused by sweating, by causing a skin eczema.
For this eczema you should use anti-eczema cream such as Econazole Nitrate Cream 1%. Apply it on inflammation area, twice a day.
It is very important for you to contact a
neurologist and a
dermatologist, to discuss about the treatments I mentioned above.
I hope you find this helpful.
I wish you a fast and healthy recovery.
Dr. Behar.
