A member asked:
I have asthma. i have back pain and today woke up with chest pain . only when i breathe does my back and chest hurt do i have an infection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not: Asthma causes one to have muscle pains especially if u have been coughing a lot and not well controlled. Chest pain from constant coughing is quite common. Back pain can also result from overuse of respiratory muscles in the back. Signs of infection wld be presence of fever , lethargy, bringing out a lot of colored phlegm, and worsening of asthma itself. If worried get urself checked.
