Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am recovering from a cold. I have had lots of drainage into the back of my throat. If I lay down to sleep then I do a lot of coughing at night and wake up coughing and congested and feeling heavy in the chest area. After 3-4 days I cough really hard and felt a sharp stabbing pain shoot from my breasts to my nipples. It happened twice yesterday and once this morning when I sneezed. Is this something to be concerned about or is it a direct reflection of the draininge and congestion?
