HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if it is sever cough or if you cough forcefully apply extra force while coughing then this may cause pain in chest area and this is muscular pain and not the cartilage damage, to get rid of this pain take care while coughing and try to find out the underlying cause of cough, take care and have a nice day.
