I'm feeling pain under my breast and kind of in the lower chest area since this morning. It really hurts when I touch it and even more when I try to take a deep breath. I'm worried about what it could be, but with the current situation, I'm scared to go to the hospital for an X-ray or anything like that. I had the same issue last year, and it got better after taking calcium supplements. Can you suggest what I should do now?

I'm really concerned because I'm experiencing a lot of shivering. Do you think Taxim O will help with that? I'm starting to get worried because it seems to be happening more frequently. Could you please advise me on this?
Taxim-O (Cefixime) is an antibiotic and does not directly control shivering. Shivering could indicate a fever or infection; you may need a fever reducer like paracetamol along with Taxim-O if prescribed for infection. Please consult a doctor for proper evaluation.
