Hi, It seems you might be having pleuritic pain giving this problem. During pneumonia there might be inflammation in pleura causing this pain. Pneumonia takes 3-4 weeks to cure. So till completely healing there might be having pain. Go for deep breathing exercises. Complete the course of antibiotic medicine. Ok and take care.
