What Causes Sore Throat, Cough And Stiffness In The Neck?
I have a terrible sore throat and even a sore and stiff neck, chest and shoulders. Associated with a cough that worsens at night and/or when I lay down. An extremely persistent cough that keeps me awake at night. And chest pain, usually aching, but sometimes sharp and sudden, usually when I lie down on my left side. Any thoughts?
