Pulled muscle in chest, how long does it last for.

Basically on Monday whilst on Holiday abroad I believe I have pulled a muscle in my chest, I have done it before and it feels the same, so I did not bother to go to the doctors thing is, 4 days later it is still the same, but to be honest I have not been resting it as we came back from holiday, packing/unpacking sorting washing etc etc.

I did suffer from PND and while I did I went to the dox with every little thing and was there most weeks, so I dont want to go back if it is a pulled muscle, I am now resting it and wondered if anyone else has done it and how long it lasted for. To make matters worse I have picked up a cold and have a sore throat and coughing is really hurting me. Just needed a little advice as the old worry wort in me is starting to worry, I have called nhs direct but really busy and couldn't find anything out on website and not going to look on internet as I know you find allsorts.

TIA

I've done something similar - lasted about a week if I remember. Pharmacists are quite good for general advice & putting your mind at rest & they may be able to suggest something to help.
