Side Pain, shortness breath, headaches

2017-03-07 05:56:28
My side has been hurting and I'm not sure if it's my lungs or ribs. I feel this constant pain that's been around for a few weeks but didn't hurt this much. It's been tougher to breath and I keep getting headaches. Not sure if that's part. I have a bad cough and my back has been hurting. I've had pneumonia and asthma before but I don't think that's it. I just want to figure out the source
