    Probably plureric pain. Inflammation of the lung lining. You just need good passim killers with anti inflammatory tablets. Talk to gp or specialist

    Good luck

    Hi Jojo

    Yes, I get the pain in my back before getting it in my chest. To me, that's a sign that I have another infection. I do, however, bring up a long of phlegm. Unfortunately, it is something that part of the condition. Have you tried inhaling steam as I find it really eases the conditions. I also use a salt pipe which I am convinced helps to keep my chest clear.

    I get that too, the pain is worse when I take a deep breath. I have also thought it is plurisy, it comes and goes. I am using the flutter device daily and it always brings up something. It is yellowish, sometimes thick sometimes milky. Seems to help as I don't get all that gurgleing in my lungs. Don't give up trying new things to help.

    I get a pain (discomfort) in the left middle of my back when I have a lot of congestion.  My left lung gets mucus plugs that puts pressure on the airways and causes pain. Usually antibiotics and sometimes a bronchoscopy (the dr goes in the lungs with a tube to suckion the mucus out) will take care of it.

Bring it up was easy before when I have a infection and no pain but this time I try so hard to clear it and they think iv hurt my back but I feel it's somethink more. Iv been taking antibodies for week now but no better. I think gp think I'm just making a fuss.
