Brief Answer:
Can be lung or joint or spine problem

Detailed Answer:
Dear Mrs,

It can be connected either lung or joint or spine problems.
If your cough is severe and you have temperature, then it is lung problem, and I advise you to see your GP.
But the location is more indicative for joint or spine problems. Also can be simple muscle pain. If no temperature and no frequent cough, I would advise you to take Iboprofen 400mg three times a day. If there is no relief during 3 days, then you should see your doctor.

Hope I could help you

Wishing you good health
