What Causes Pain In The Ribs While Suffering From Persistent Cough?
After coughing for several days (aligeries I believe) my stomach mussels were very sore. Now the muscle pain has lessened but when I cough I has have a severe burning on my right side towards the front just below the rib cage. The pain is savior but as soon as I stop coughing the pain/burn sensation goes away. I would say the pain is 8-9 Im 73 and in good general health.
