Have dry cough for 8 weeks with pain in rt. lower rib-flank area & rt. mid-chest when coughing & inhaling. no visible swelling. x-ray & blood test ok. ?

Not only OK, needed: Pulmonary symptoms of this duration with the pain and intensity you describe are more than reason enough for an immediate check up with your doctor. Blood tests and lung x-rays will likely be part of the examination. Good luck!
