I'm experiencing pain on the right side of my chest, specifically in the middle area, and it gets worse when I bend down, walk, or move forward. It's been happening since yesterday morning. Even sleeping is tough I feel it when I try to lie down, and it's really painful when I sneeze. I've been on medication for epigastric and antral ulcers for the past five days. Could this chest pain be related to that, or might it be something else? I'm really worried about what's going on.

I'm really worried about my friend who's been on TB meds for about 20 days now. Suddenly, he started having nonstop vomiting, can't eat or drink, and is super dehydrated. The doctor suggested stopping his TB pills for a week. They're giving him Taxim injections for the next 5 to 6 days along with some other injections. Do you think this break in TB treatment is something we should be concerned about?
Yes, it is the side-effects of anti-tubercular therapy. Pls continue inj taxim for 5 days.Post antibiotic course ATT can be started .
