Hi,
I have read your query & understand your concern.
The symptom you describe od stabbing pain on right side of chest & back increased on deep breathing/coughing suggests inflammation of lung tissue/it's covering- pleura due to infection( bacterial/viral) you already had/ allergy.It seems to be just the beginning of the condition( as you don't have fever along).
I would advice you for early visit to a chest physician for physical examination,investigations(blood count,Xray chest). he will then prescribe you suitable antibiotic,anti inflammatory drug along with other specific drugs according to the reports.
Thanks.
