H. flu: Was the h. Flu infection a pneumonia? Sometimes, even after its properly treated, the symptoms of pneumonia can last for weeks to months - it's residual inflammation and fluid. For lingering pain and discomfort, we use anti-inflammatories and other pain meds. If you're having worsening symptoms, new fevers or you haven't been treated yet, please see your doc! hope this helps.

See below: You may have some residual pleurisy causing the pain, or post-infectious asthma. Get yourself checked, you may need more asthma medications (this is usually self-contained and goes away after a few months) or pain relievers, or something else?
