What Causes Burning Sensation In The Upper Chest While Treating Cough?
My esophagus (from just below my tonsils down to between my breasts) has been burning for 72 hours. Hurts more whilst breathing in & is accompanied by hacking yellow brown cough that burns like fire. My 6yr old was diagnosed flu type B 2 weeks ago & I AM PREGNANT(1st trimester)...symptoms aren t decreasing .....any ideas?
