[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your situation and problem. I advise you to take her to the hospital and get done chest x-ray and ECG. In old age, lung infections are very common. And high grade fever (102) with vigorous coughing with chest pain can be due to pneumonia. So chest x-ray is needed to rule out pneumonia. ECG is needed to rule out cardiac cause. So consult doctor and discuss all these. Rubbing Picks will not help her. It is just superficial cream.
