I've been experiencing this sharp chest pain on the right side whenever I take a deep breath, and it's been going on for like three days now. It's really starting to worry me, and I'm not sure what could be causing it. Could it be something serious, and should I be concerned? What do you think might be going on?

I'm really worried about my mom's cough situation. We've been to the doctor, but nothing seems to be helping her. Whenever she starts coughing, it goes on for a long time and only stops when we nebulize her. It tends to happen around 8 to 8:30 pm and sometimes when she's eating. It feels like no medication is working for her. What could be causing this, and is there anything else we can try to help her?

take duolin syrup

I'm curious if pleurisy or pulmonary effusion could be causing me pain in my calf muscles. About three years ago, I was treated for pulmonary effusion, and since then, I've had a slight pain when breathing. But now I've also got this calf muscle pain. Could these be connected? What should I do about it?

Yes that would cause calf muscle pain due to weakness and lack of proper nutrients,consume healthy food and take adequate rest,if its becoming worse visit Physician
