Chest hurts while lying down & breathing
My mother in law had faced fever and cough 1 and half month ago. Doctor gave hime Azithromycin and Duo antibiotics with foracort inhaler. After that her fever gone and after using foracort for one month his cough is much less now. But the only problem recently over 10 days she is facing like when she is lying down or take breaths under the arm and breast hurts. Then she took doxy sl for 10 days but still it hurts. We are worried is this anything related to something very serious like cancer?
