my husband has had pneumonia from Thanksgiving to past Christmas, he was on antibiotics and prednasone; two weeks ago he began coughing again and the Dr. gave him antibiotics and prednasone again. He is not taking anything now as of two days ago. He has a deep constant pain (ache?) in his right chest. Could this be pluresy?

Hello,

Your symptoms strongly suggest Pleurisy but confirmation can only be done by X-Ray examination.
