Hello
Thank you for sharing your symptoms. The pain in your upper left chest following a cough could have several possible causes, including:
- Muscle strain from persistent coughing
- Costochondritis (inflammation of the chest wall cartilage)
- Pleuritic pain (lung-related irritation)
- Less commonly, cardiac or other serious conditions
While the advice to use warm fluids and steam inhalation may help soothe irritation, it’s important to rule out more significant issues, especially if you experience:
✔ Worsening pain
✔ Shortness of breath
✔ Fever or persistent cough
✔ Radiating pain to the arm/jaw
I recommend a **clinical examination** to assess your heart and lung function, and possibly imaging (like an X-ray) if needed. For a thorough evaluation, you can reach me at **eight zero zero nine eight two one three three two** on WhatsApp to schedule a consultation.
