bronchoitis chest pain

[maheshk77]

Hi,

I was diagnosed with acute bronchoitis 12 days ago. (26-Aug-2009). I was hospitalized and was given nebolization along with other anti biotics. I was not having any chest pain during that time.
Now that after all the treatment and still in-progress (Gemone 400 mg, Seroflo inhaler, Benz perals tablets, Teczine capsule) I still have dry cough and worst part is I have chest pain which I was not yet having.
I also consulted pulmonologist and he did spirometry and chest x -ray. Everything he told is normal. If everything is normal and I am taking so many medicines why do I still have chest pain? Please let me know. Thanks in advance.

Thanks a bunch for the quick reply.


I do not have any cough or breathlessness. I am just worried about my chest pain. Docotor also did ECG and he said it is normal.
I also have upper back pain (more intense than chest pain) I am not sure if this back pain is radiating around the chest.

Please advise on any home remedies / any tests that I need to get done.

Sometimes for some unlucky people, bronchitis can take up to 2 months to get rid of the dry cough. Your lungs are still healing. Be glad your lung function test results were normal. I had acute bronchitis over 4 months ago ( I also have asthma) and I still now have a wet cough. I bring up mucous from my lungs every day and my lung function is not quite the same anymore. Your chest is probably sore from all of the coughing, which is hard work on the body. Just have patience, it will clear up. As long as you don't have a fever, shortness of breath or coughing up coloured mucous, I think you will be ok.
