Suggest Remedy For Cold With Tender Breast Skin

I am just getting over a cold which I have had for about 10 days. I have noticed that the skin around my breast area and side is sensitive, having a tingling feeling. I am a male 64 years old, who had chicken pox as a child. Do I have anything to worry about as I am leaving on a week's vacation tomorrow?

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Chicken pox in the childhood has no relation to the present problem.
If the cold and associated symptoms are well controlled you can very well go for and enjoy the vacation.
The tingling and around the breast and sides may not have any clinical significance at the moment unless it is causing any other problem.
Sometimes the sensory nerves do get over-sensitive for no obvious reason and usually heal on its own.
You may please visit a neurologist if the symptoms persists or increase.
