Dr. Stuart Hickerson answered

Specializes in Family Medicine

Chest pain: I think your main problem is your chest pain. Chest pain can be cause of muscles strain. One common cause is intercostal muscle strain from cough too much. Your rib can get suluxed or your chest wall muscles can get strained (seratus muscles).
