[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Your chest pain is mostly due to pneumonia. Pneumonia causes pleurisy (inflammation of pleura). And this causes pleuritic pain. Upper lobe pneumonia can be due to either tuberculosis or bacterial infection. So better to get done sputum examination for AFB (acid fast bacilli) to rule out tuberculosis. Also get done sputum culture to isolate the causative organism for pneumonia. You may need antibiotics or anti-tubercular Chat Doctor.  So better to first diagnose yourself and then start appropriate treatment. Hope I have solved your query. Wish you good health. Thanks.
