What Causes Severe Left Sided Chest Pain While Having Bronchitis?

I ve had a cold for about 3 weeks, or a bit longer. It hit my chest first, which is typical for me because I have had pneumonia before - long ago and bronchitis off and on for years. I m 58 years old and a non smoker. Ok my issue is that yesterday morning I work up with a horrible pain in my left chest/side and back. It got better throughout the day, yet it was still present and I did take some pain medication. Well today I woke up with the same thing, so something seems not right. Thanks, Jill

Hi
Welcome
I have gone through your query.
It might be due to muscle strain.
Analgesic will be helpful.
Also you have to get an ECG to rule out any cardiac pathology.
See local physician for help.
Take care
