Pain in lungs

[anyoldname76]

Freakin out a bit, I do have anxiety at the moment so I'm not sure if I'm just hypersensitive.
Started with a sore throat earlier and now I've got a bit of a pathetic cough and my chest feels a bit tight, my main worry is that I'm getting sharp pains in my lungs if I try and take a deep breath.
I haven't got a fever though. I do have asthma but that's only normally in the summer if I don't control my hay fever properly.
Im going have an anxiety tab to see if that helps

Hi OP, firstly relax. I would say if you are feeling a sharp pain in your lung then try to contact 111, I think you can fill out a form online. Have you had this before? Do you have anyone with you? Many of us have health anxiety, but it's important to be sure and not dismiss anything.

Thanks for replying, I ended up going bed, I've woke up with a temp,but having chills, my body is aching and I'm definitely coughing more, the pains are still happening in my lungs whenever I cough but it's manageable at the moment. I live with my DH and 2 x ds so goin self isolate myself

I've been feeling the same op. Started on Sunday. I've been taking medicine regularly and drinking hot drinks. Look after yourself x

Hot-as-comfortable shower directed at outside of chest where the pain is will help. As will olbas oil, vicks or similar.

See how it feels in a couple of hours.

Arietty thank you I'll try that

Sorry OP, hope you recover quickly. Your whole family must now fully isolate for 14 days and not just you. Just checking you know that as your post sounded like you were going to isolate by yourself.
