Two months is a long time to stay on antibiotics.  Have they been able to determine if there is some other condition that is the underlying casue of your pleurisy?  It might be time to ask for a second opinion and see if there is something else causing it that needs to be treated.

It could be spasms in your intercostal muscles (the muscles between your ribs). This can be painful and can make breathing painful.\n\nIf you can, try vigorously massaging the affected area while trying to take a deep breath.\n\nRegardless, it's worth bringing up with your physician.\n:)

It could be a number of things. See your doctor and insist on a chest X-ray.

Pleurisy is an inflammation of the pleura, the lining of the lungs, with subsequent pain. \n\nPleurisy may develop in the presence of lung inflammation (for example, pneumonia, tuberculosis), rheumatic diseases, chest trauma, certain cancers, and asbestos-related disease. The main symptom is pain over the chest wall at the site of the inflammation. In some circumstances, the pain may be felt in the shoulder. \n\nThe pain is increased by deep breathing, coughing, and chest movement. The normally smooth pleural surfaces, now roughened by inflammation, rub together with each breath, and may produce a rough, grating sound called a "friction rub". This can be heard with the stethoscope or an ear held against the chest.\n\nFluid often accumulates at the site of pleural inflammation. A localized collection of fluid separates the lung pleura from the chest wall pleura causing the chest pain to disappear even though the illness may be worsening.

You probably have an upper respiratory infection, which if left untreated will develop into pneumonia. If you can, see a doctor. You could try OTC medication like Mucinex, which is supposed to free up congestion in your chest. Also humidifiers work wonders.

Honestly, there's not much you can do.  You could try wrapping your chest with an ace bandage (not too tight!).  This will keep them from moving as much and help reduce the pain.  Did your doctor take an x-ray to make sure they are only cracked not broken?

Drink plenty of water and don't smoke cigarettes (the worst for blood flow)or drink alcohol. Also Aerobic exercise will make your lungs better able to get oxygen into the bloodstream.

i don't know how bad the problem is but the best natural way to get rid of the flesh is to exercise.\n\nuse weights and work on the chest muscles to reduce the fat underneath.
