Hello,

You should get visited by a physician. A doctor should listen to your lungs or even do an X-ray of the thorax to determine the diagnose.

You may have bronchitis or pneumonia since you have a cough an rib pain. Antibiotics may be needed.

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