question: Hi my kids have been sick since Thursday and was told Saturday by a doctor that they had a virus (symptoms were high fever around 103 constantly used tylenol and ibuprofen to cut it down, stuffy and runny noses, achy body, sore throat). Now none of us have fevers anymore, but we are still congested and have horrible barking like coughs. Took the kids back to the doctors today and they told me they both have upper respiratory infections. They are on antibiotics so should start feeling better... now my runny/stuffy nose is also combined with sinus pressure. I have been taking Ibuprofen and mucinex to help with all of that but when I cough my chest feels real tight and hurts in my sternum area even long after I am done coughing. I do not smoke. I think I have an upper respiratory infection, but what is the pain in my chest???
