What Causes Chronic Cough Along With Back And Chest Pain?
HAD A FUNDOPLICATION IN 2008 ALL WAS FINE. Then I had a endoscopic Jan 5 experience chest pain so bad . Now it has been one month. Have cough back pain chest pain even after I was on medicine for a month. I read it could come undone if a biopsy taken of the wrap and there was. Dr. wanted to do a ct scan but I didn t want all dye in my system. It was a new Dr. My retired.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of chronic cough along with back and chest pain which seems to be due to upper respiratory track infection leading to bronchitis/ granular pharyngitis. I would suggest you to start with course of antibiotics and anti inflammatory medications. Avoid use of sharp and spicy food substances. Avoid cold carbonated beverages. Your symptoms will resolve in 1 week. if symptoms keeps on persisting you should consult ENT specialist and take proper treatment. You should get X-ray chest done along with pulmonary function tests. Doctor may prescribe antibiotics at least for 5 days along with decongestants and mucolytic agents. You should do warm saline gargles and take steam twice a day. Drink warm water with honey . Doctor may also refer you to cardiologist for angina like condition .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
