Hi,
It seems you might be having pleuritic pain giving this problem.
During pneumonia there might be inflammation in pleura causing this pain.
Pneumonia takes 3-4 weeks to cure.
So till completely healing there might be having pain.
Go for deep breathing exercises.
Complete the course of antibiotic medicine.
Ok and take care.
