Respiratory symptoms: Chest pain may persist with improving respiratory symptoms. You can still have inflammation of airways and some chest pain while you recover. You may want to try a flonase inhaler for the sinus congestion. Also continue lots of fluids, lemon water, and frequent nasal saline flushes.
