A member asked:
Sharp pain in my left lung that comes once in a while and when i cough hard it goes away! help?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cough and pain: Pain with coughing can be any number of things, yet as it is only intermittent, i think it would most likely be from a strain of one of the muscles of your rib cage. If it persists, though, see your doctor. Feel better!
