How Can Chest Pain And Chronic Cough Be Treated?

I had a bad fall 2 weeks ago. Along with bruises and cracked knee cap, I must have landed on my chest - on concrete. I’ve had a croupy caugh and the pain is terrible in my chest. It was xrayed but didn’t show anything broken. Should I just ride out the pain?
