I have been ill for 3 days with a heavy cough, causing pain in my left ribs. I am coughing up gobs of yellow mucus, feeling listless, and have no fever. I am 83 years old, have a history of chronic sinusitis, and am on multiple medications primarily for heart and blood pressure issues, as well as diabetes controlled with diet and metformin. Is the cough related to my chronic sinusitis, and what can I do to alleviate the symptoms and prevent complications like pneumonia?

Could a doctor please explain if every time I feel a heart thud or skipped beat, it is actually a PVC/PAC, or if it could be a normal sinus arrhythmia? Additionally, how can someone know if they have atrial fibrillation, and what are the risks associated with it, especially for young and otherwise healthy individuals?
