Two days ago I came down with cold like symptoms. Sense then I am coughing up white phlem, have a bad headache,Runny nose with thin clear mucus, joint/muscle aches, chills, fever with purfuse sweating, fatigue, and pain upon inhaling. This pain is on both sides, but worse on the right. It is felt in the chest and in the back as well. If I hold my breath after inhaling it still hurts. If I hold my breath after exhalin it does not hurt. What could be going on?

 Hi Evae,
There are a few possibilities. It may be that you have a severe viral infection such as influenza. It may also be that you have developed a secondary bacterial infection such as pneumonia.
If you don't feel better in the next day or so, or if you feel worse, I would recommend you see your doctor.
Best wishes.
