Smoker w/ productive cough (clear) for 3+ mos. severe pinpoint pain left of spine & medial of scapula w/ resps, cough, & movement. nsaids don't help.

Time for X-ray or ct: Three months is a long time to have a cough. Antitussives Usually it might be helpful but after three months I would recommend more radiographic information to rule out anything significant particularly lung cancer or lung mass.
