[|Human|] I just finished taking Amoxicilin for a sinus infection but still have so much drainage down the back of my throats that I cough a lot. Now my right side hurts right at the height of my bra strap. Could this possibly be from coughing so hard and so much? Heat doesn t seem to help and Naproxin hasn t touched it. My next resort is to try and put an ice pack on it. Any thoughts?
[|AI|]  Hello have gone through your question and understand your concern. People who cough very hard may strain their rib muscles or cartilage, causing pain in the chest, particularly when they breathe in, move, or cough again. It could also be pleuritic chest pain which is typically sharp and stabbing in a part of the chest. The pain is usually made worse when you breathe in or cough. Use OTC medications like paradox 500 mg every 6th holy for 3 days. If the symptoms does not improve or fever increases, see a GP for further examination to rule out lung infection.
