Question

What should I do if I have a cold, cough, and chest pain?

Answer

If you have a cold, cough, and are experiencing chest pain, it is advisable to rule out the possibility of mycoplasma pneumoniae infection. You should go to the hospital for a chest X-ray to determine if there is a lung infection. If diagnosed with a lung infection, antibiotic treatment may be required. Additionally, during illness, it is important to maintain a balanced diet as the demand for nutrients is higher at this time, and malnutrition can weaken resistance. It is also important to strengthen your physique through appropriate exercise and regular living habits to enhance immunity. Avoid overworking and excessive overtime, as this can lower immunity.
