[|Human|] Hi, have had a chest infection and pleurisy, am on antibiotics and infection seems to have cleared up although right side of chest still hurts when I cough. tonight my right side feels uncomfortable and seems a little puffy/swollen, could this be to do with the pleurisy?
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Yes, possibility of pleurisy is more in your case. Most common cause for pleurisy is lung infection (pneumonia). Since you are already suffering from severe chest infection, pleurisy is likely in your case. Pleurisy will gradually resolve along with chest infection. You can take painkiller and anti-inflammatory Chat Doctor.  Get done repeat chest x-ray after 10 days to see whether pneumonia is improving or not. Hope I have solved your. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
