I have what I think is a chest infection and it s making my back hurt where my lungs are, I also have a awful blocked nose and genuinely feel flu like, but I ve just noticed I have a thick white coating on my tounge and some red lumps at the back.. Any ideas why?
Dear-you are having symptoms of bronchitis. This can cause irritation and inflammation of the membrane that covers the lung named pleura and gives you a back pain mostly when takes a deep breath. If you are having a thick white coating on your tongue this could be oral thrush, which sometimes happens when you have a bad infection or your immune system is not working properly. The red lumps in the back of the throat could be secondary to the infection. I would recommend you to see your primary care doctor because you will need medical treatment, I hope that my advice has been helpful. Chat Doctor.
