What Do Chest Pain, Intermittent Cough And Back Pain During Pregnancy Suggest?
I m currently 38 weeks pregnant and I have had an on and off dry cough for almost 4 weeks, I m having upper back pain, around my shoulder blades, and also some chest pain and tightness. However I have no other symptoms except what feels like an itch inside my skin on my back and around my neck where my throat is. Should I be concerned?

Hi,
Your symptoms suggest allergic bronchitis. You need to consult a physician with blood counts to find eosinophilia which produces similar complaints. Once the diagnosis is confirmed. You would be advised cause specific medicines to relieve you!
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
