I got the flu a few months ago but the cough won't go away even though i tried 2 doctors' treatments now i feel cold and i have back and ribs pain?

Cough: possibly pneumonia. the back and rib hurt from the persistent cough I'm assuming. May need an X-ray or CT of your chest to see what is going on.
