I'm feeling pretty confused and a bit worried about this pain I've got going on. It started in my arms and now it's spread to my neck and shoulders. I'm not sure who I should reach out to firstshould I go to a general physician, a pain specialist, a physiotherapist, or an orthopedist? Any guidance would be much appreciated.

I've been dealing with this viral fever, and my doctor recommended I take Zyrcold syrup. But now I've started having loose motions, and I'm worried that the syrup might be causing it. Could Zyrcold be the reason for this? Should I stop taking it or do something different?

I accidentally took an Ecosprin 75mg pill instead of my Montek LC tablet. Should I be worried about this mix-up? I don't have any health problems otherwise. Could you let me know if I might face any issues?
You have accidentally taken Ecosprin 75mg instead of Montek LC tablet. Ecosprin contains aspirin which is a blood thinner and Montek LC is a combination of Montelukast and Levocetirizine used for asthma and allergy symptoms. Since you do not have any health issues, the accidental intake of Ecosprin should not cause any immediate harm. However, it is important to be cautious with medication mix-ups in the future. For now, you can monitor for any signs of stomach upset, nausea, or bleeding. If you experience any unusual symptoms, it is advisable to seek medical attention.
