Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query.As you having cough with chest pain an auscultation with a physician is necessary to rule out whether it is acute bronchitis or abscess of lungs which gives awful taste on cough.A chest X ray might be needed also.With proper antibiotic therapy and bronchodilators you will be fine.Make yourself enough hydrated.You can take warm chicken soup tea with lemon and chewable Vitamin C.Hope this may help you.
Let me know if you have any further query.
