Suggest Treatment For Chest Infection And Cough

I have a chest infection, been coughing quite aggressively for 8 days. Been on anti biotics for 4 days. Two days ago my head started to hurt when I cough. Same place. Back left side. It doesn t hurt unless I cough - it is a tender pain. It isn t intense or that bad but does happen everytime I cough. I ve also not slept through the night for 7 days due to coughing.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, first this should be infection so antibiotic is useful else this wont work here, most of the time this could be due to allergic conditions if this is so then no specific treatment needed, while cough ups this action needs great energy and this comes from the chest muscles and phenomenon some times becomes painful, but this is nothing to worry, every thing would be fine, take care.
I find this answer helpful
