Acute bronchitis: If it's hurting bad then you need a chest x-ray to r/o acute lung injury but acute bronchitis is more likely- you never know what was in that vaccum bag... In some cases, it could be so severe that a burst of steroids might be needed.. Frequently though, it may resolve on its own but I would recommend further investigation.
