Could The Pain In Chest With Difficulty In Breathing Be Bronchitis?

I've had a bad cold for the past 5 days. Sinuses have been clogged. I had taken some cold medicine for a stuffy nose and that didn't help. Took some mucinex today and that helped unclog the sinus. I find that my chest hurts and have some difficulty breathing. No cough. Couple of people at work have had bronchitis. Do you think I may have bronchitis?

You should see a doctor. At the very least your doctor will examine you and determine if there are any signs of pneumonia or inflammatory fluid around the lungs. Shortness of breath and chest pain together are concerning symptoms that should be evaluated promptly.
