View Full Version : Anyone pull a muscle from constant coughs?
Sounds like intercostal muscles to be exact. But every time I cough now I'd get a crazy sharp pain to lower right chest. Going to docs soon to be certain.
That's no good hope your ok!

I got a hernia in college from bronchitis. Nothing in the chest though.
Yeah had major coughs with a cold. But I'm no longer sick. And doesn't hurt when I take deep breaths so not too worried.
It's possible, though worrisome. I think many years back Sammy Sosa pulled a muscle in his lower back from a sneezing fit. However, he was coming off steroid use, so his muscles would have been more susceptible to pulls and tears.

A buddy of mine cracked a rib from coughing so hard.
Didn't Patrick nearly die from similar symptoms?

Yep, strained a abdominal muscle once, barely able breath as the coughing was so bad. Went to the emergency room and they gave me a shot that knocked me down a little and relaxed me to the point I could breath the Oxygen they put me on. They put me in antibiotics and everything cleared up in about 4 to 5 days. It was scary.
Jacked up a muscle in my back...and another time blew out hernia....i don't mess with colds now
My dad did a long time ago. Problem is you can't rest and so just keep doing damage. It looked like it really hurt. I would get it looked at quickly if possible. Urgent care is not emergency (cost is lower) and is many times quicker than a normal doctors office visit. I did not know about these till my wife found out about them.
Didn't Patrick crack a few ribs from coughing?

pulled muscles and i believe dislocated a rib once coughing
Girl I know broke her ribs from coughing so hard. Unpleasant, especially since the coughing doesn't go away when the ribs are broken.
Never cracked a rib while coughing, but I did crap my pants once when I sneezed....
