I'm a bit worried because I've had a dry cough for about a week, and now the right side of my back is swollen. I went to the doctor, and she said the swelling is from the cough and it's nothing serious. The swelling has gone down, but I'm still feeling a little pain around my right rib area. Should I be concerned about this lingering pain? Could it be something more than just from the cough?

I'm really worried because after my fever, I've been dealing with this abdominal pain. My doctor told me to take Seconil, but when I went to the pharmacy, they gave me something called Secnil instead. I'm just not sure if they're the same thing and whether it's okay to take it. Could you help me out with this?
Seconil is typically used as a tranquilizer and anti-anxiety medication. It is commonly prescribed for managing anxiety, stress, and certain psychiatric conditions. Secnil, on the other hand, is an antibiotic containing Ciprofloxacin. It is generally used to treat bacterial infections, including urinary tract infections, gastrointestinal infections, and other types of bacterial infections.
