Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

This seems in relation with possible respiratory insufficiency involving lower lobe segment.

Along with pain medicines, best results would be obtained from:

- Deep breathing exercises
- Inhalation of boiled water with added Karvol plus capsules with blanket covered over the head
- Prefer semi reclining position till possible

Consult with your doctor tomorrow morning for x-ray chest and further management guidelines.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
