Why does my right side chest hurt when i cough?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A few options: Pleurisy, rib cartilage sprain (from really severe coughing), muscle injury (again from all the coughing). Usually one of those. Other options include complications of pneumonia and infection or inflammation of the heart lining.
