Periodic cough and chest muscle pain.

Question

Asked for Female, 45 Years

I have had a random cough for over seven months. For the last 2 weeks my chest muscles have been extremely sore. I thought I may have strained the muscles lifting a heavy planter. But, in the past my muscle soreness from lifting has not lasted more than a week. Do you have any recommendation for what is causing the problem ?
