HelloI have had a cough for 2-almost 3 weeks now.the phelgm is gone and i dont cough very often but when i do it hurts my heart.its not my lungs, its specifically the area where my heart should be.im worried it might be infected chest/lung, but if its just bruising from coughing too much then how do i get better?thank you.
Thanks for asking your question I completely understand your question yes it can be chest infection or a lower resp tract infection earlier cough was productive with yellow sputum then it was infective it is now associated with chest pain u need to get a chest X-ray and rule out any disease like pleural effusion, tb, other resp tract infection you need to consult a pulmonologist for accurately diagnose your situation after some simple investigations thanks/ regards feel free to ask more questions may god bless you with good health
