i woke up on the 1st with a fever that lasted 3 days and was sneezing til 2 days ago. since the day the fever started ive been coughing nonstop and all day today each time i cough i get a sharp stabbing pain in the back/side right under my ribs and also have a dull pain in the same area when i breathe in deep. What is wrong and what can i do to help?
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Fever, constant cough and chest pain are more suggestive of lower respiratory tract infection (LETI) (pneumonia). So better to first get done chest x-ray. If chest x-ray is showing pneumonia then you will need antibiotics, antihistamine and paracetamol. If chest x-ray is normal then only antihistamine and paracetamol are needed. Chat Doctor.
