[|AI|]  Hello dear, thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. In my opinion we should rule out causes for pleurisy (inflammation of pleura) for your symptoms. Because chest pain on coughing is characteristic feature of pleurisy. Following are the possible causes for pleurisy. 1. Pneumonia2. Tuberculosis3. Pleural effusion etc. So get done chest x-ray to rule out these causes. If chest x-ray is normal then no need to worry, muscular pain is the probable cause. So start painkiller and muscle relaxant. Avoid strenuous exercise and heavyweight lifting. Apply warm water pad on affected site. Don't worry, you will be alright.
