Pulmonologist 's  Response
Hello,

You are having fever, cough and chest pain. All these are commonly seen with a lung infection (pneumonia).

So, it is better to consult pulmonologist and get done a clinical examination of the respiratory system and chest x-ray. A chest x-ray is must for the diagnosis of pneumonia.

You will need a higher antibiotic, anti-pyretic, and other supportive drugs. Do not worry you will be alright with all these.

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

Regards,
Dr. Kaushal Bhavsar
