[|Human|] Hi i recently have been confirmed positive for influenza A and have been takingtamiflu as precribed by my doctor.I have almost stopped coughing since yesterdaybut if i do cough,i fell a pain on both sides of my lower abdomen!Pls provideyour opinion.
[|AI|]  Hi. The pain on both the sides of the lower abdomen ca n be due to the following reasons::First the Influenza affects all the muscles of the body, particularly the one which are strained a lot, which in your case are the lower abdominal wall muscles. By virtue of the position the lower abdominal wall muscles get exposed to most strain. So you get pain while coughing. I would advise you to take an anti-inflammatory medicine like Ibuprofen at 8 hourly intervals with food. Take bed-rest if you want to have an early recovery.
