Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this this pain that your child has. Chest pain with coughing needs a complete medical examination to rule out pneumonia. Managing the pain without having a clear idea on what the cause is would not be a good idea. My advice is for you to get this child consulted by a pediatrician for evaluation and appropriate management.

I hope this addresses your query fully. Thank you so much for patronizing our services and please do feel free to ask for follow up clarifications and information if need be. I wish you the best of health.
