Hello, I was told I had an upper respiratory infection 2 weeks ago and I have a horrible cough. 2 weeks after being to the Dr I still have the cough and now i have this unbearable pain right under my left armpit that ranges from bottom of armpit to the underside of my breast down to my side. It bothers me every time I cough, sneeze, laugh, move, anything at all that i do with my left side. Help please..

Hello,

Your symptoms seem to be related to an upper respiratory tract infection.

I suggest using a cough suppressant such as Dexometorphan.

I also suggest drinking liquids and rest.

If the symptoms continue, I recommend consulting your physician for prescription antibiotics.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
