I'm dealing with a cold that's been lingering for about five days now. I've been using Alerid syrup but havent felt any better. Do you think Hicet syrup would be a better option to help with this?

Don't self-medicate with Nexpro 40 without consulting your doctor again. Recurring gas problems may indicate an underlying issue, such as:

Acid reflux

IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome)

Food intolerance

Gut motility issues

Chest pain on both sides, even if mild, can be related to:

Gas and acid reflux

Musculoskeletal issues

Anxiety or stress

Underlying cardiac conditions (rare, but possible)

I'm experiencing some body pain, a slight fever, and a sore throat for the past couple of days. Could this be from a stomach infection? I tend to get those often. Is it alright to take aldigesic p, norflox tz, and azilide at the same time for this?

As of now you can take a tab. Paracetamol 650mg thrice a day after food for 2 days. If it still persists, you can start a online consultation with me so that I can take a detailed history and suggest you further
