My 84 year old husband has a sharp pain in his right side when he coughs and when in the process of sitting down or getting up. He does have pulmonary hypertension, but doesn t seem to have pain in the lungs, just the sharp pain in the right side. The pain subsides after he is seated or done coughing. I am considering taking him to an Emergency Room to check it out. Do you have any recommendations or advice? Thank You. My email address is YYYY@YYYY . We are about 35 minutes from Waterloo.
