What causes me to have pins and needles in my chest and back while having a horrible coughing spell?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
This may have been : From one of several reasons including local nerve irritation as the nerves exiting the spine in this region travel under each of the ribs where there are chest muscles used to move the ribs during breathing and coughing
