[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your situation and problem. Your symptoms like cough, phlegm, high grade fever and pleuritic chest pain etc. are suggesting possibility of lower respiratory tract infection (LETI - pneumonia) is more. So better to consult pulmonologist and get done clinical examination of respiratory system, chest x-ray. Chest x-ray is needed for the diagnosis of pneumonia. You may need antibiotics, antihistamines and anti-inflammatory Chat Doctor.  Don't worry, you will be alright. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
