[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your situation and problem. You are having typical pleuritic pain. It can mostly due to pleurisy (inflammation of pleura). Most common cause for pleurisy is lung infection. Lung infection can be seen after upper respiratory tract infection (URI) like cold. So we need to first rule out lung infection in your case. So get done chest x-ray. If chest x-ray is normal than no need to worry about lung infection. Possibility of musculoskeletal pain is more. Ibuprofen is anti-inflammatory. You will definitely improve witChatDoctorbination of painkiller and muscle relaxant Chat Doctor.  Also apply warm water pad on affected areas. Avoid movements causing pain. Don't worry, you will be alright in 1-2 weeks. But better to first rule out lung infection. Hope I have solved your query. Wish you good health. Thanks.
