Do you mean Rt chest: If the pain is in your chest, it might be due to muscular pain. When you cough, you use the muscle of breathing and surrounding muscles to help in the process. Sometimes the muscles start hurting from overuse Simple pain killers and treating the cough might help relieving the symptoms

You should: have a "hands on" examination to rule out an abdominal hernia! Hope this helps! Dr Z
