I have a chronic cough and stomach cramps. How to treat it?
Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I have woken up with a terrible cough, and it has made me throw up for the past four nights. It did not do that last night, though.
My lower abdomen hurts, and I am having terrible cramps (literally all-day cramps, nonstop), and it is like period cramps, but it is more of a pulling sensation with it.
I experienced a sharp pain on the lower right side for about a minute, and this occurrence has repeated a few times.
I ate food, and it is like the top of my stomach hurts, along with the bottom (the bottom pain has not changed at all), and my lower back is hurting really badly, along with my shoulders.
I am experiencing some pain on the upper right side, but it is localized entirely on the right side.
Kindly help.

Kindly consult your specialist doctor, discuss with them, and take the medicines with their consent.
- Try to have cough syrup or some antihistamines.
