What Causes Pain In The Right Side Of The Body Upon Coughing?

I had allergies, which turned into a sinus infection, treated for that, then it turned into bronchitis, which I ve suffered with a lot of my life. We have had to move during all of this and my coughing is always and has been severe. A few days ago, and have been lifting, my lower right side started hurting, especially when I cough. I realized I may have pulled muscles from coughing and moving. But, just a few minutes ago, I went to cough, a severe pain came in the same area, but I felt a pop. So severe my husband is holding my side so I can cough. Is this still muscle related. (I ve already finished two different rounds of antibiotic and 2 kinds of shots and steroids).. to much. Thank you

Hi,

As you have bronchitis with repeated sinus infection with cough, so pain may be due to coughing. As during cough, chest muscles exertion happens and may cause referral pain due to bronchitis. You may require antibiotics after consultation. Do regular exercise for 30 to 40 min.

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