Suggest Remedy For Chesty Cough

hi, i am a 24yeard old female and have been feeling poorly for the last few weeks with a chesty cough and now i feel really sick and my head feels warm but my hairs on my arms are all standing on end like i am cold. i did have unprotected sex with my husband at the weekend although i am on the pill but it was my week off. could this be why or is it something to do with me already being poorly?

In my opinion you should first undergo chest x ray to rule out pneumona. As you are describing chest cough, warm head, feeling seek with fever with chills (hair on hand goes straight) all these are symptoms of pneumonia. So better to confirm with chest x ray.
