Pleurisy: If you feel the same burning pain with deep inspiration, then the pain is pleurisy or inflammation of the pleura or lining of the lungs which accompanies certain viral infections sometimes. If not allergic, you may take ibuprofen(Advil or Motrin) or naproxen (Aleve) which are anti-inflammatory medications as well as pain relievers. If no improvement or worsening symptoms, please see your doctor.
