A member asked:
What can i do if my chest/lungs always hurt after and i cough a lot too . is it normal ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not normal: While cough is common during a cold, coughing that is recurrent or persistent longer than 4-6 weeks is considered chronic and should be evaluated. Chest pain again is not normal. An evaluation that includes both heart and lungs would be common. There are many reasons and the treatment would be specific to each one.
