Hi everyone, does anyone here having lung infection before? Last few weeks ENT doctor told me I have lung infections and take medicine for 2 weeks. It’s getting better, but my chest pain still there if I cough or sneeze. It’s feel like torn sting my left chest.
But doctor told me that I had ate 2 weeks antibiotics, lung infection should be fully recovered and there is no need to follow up again. Even though I told him my chest is still pain if I cough or sneeze. Besides that, my throat not feeling well too, sometime have small amount of phlegm when cough.
Should I go find another doctor to checkup again?
Ps. I get treatment from Colombia Hospital at Setapak. Should I give a try at other specialist clinic or hospital?
Your advice would be appreciated. Thanks

Do's Drink more warm / slightly hot water. Wear additional clothing.
Don't Drink cool water. Eat ice-cream.
Just normal guide above, go see another doctor & seek 2nd opinion.

How the cough started?
Were there a sore throat and runny nose initially?
Or the cough came out of nowhere without any other symptoms?

I will start cough when I try to laugh out loudly or did not drink enough water. Sore throat come in the middle of treatment until now. So does the chest pain. Sometime cough without any symptom. Maybe is because of dust at my place. This post has been edited by ray9292: Feb 6 2018, 09:53 AM

I am coughing for 4 weeks now. Finished 3 bottles of cough syrup, 1 bottle of pei pa koa. I think the main reason is because I keep drinking cold drinks and not changing my diet
