I've been feeling a really strong pulse in my head for the past couple of days, and yesterday I noticed it in my rib area too. It feels like there's an extra heartbeat or something. I've tried to ignore it, but it's so uncomfortable and it's been messing up my sleep. I even woke up with a really fast heart rate today, and it's making me quite anxious. It's like I can't escape this feeling, whether I'm awake or trying to sleep. What should I do to make this go away? Any advice would really help.

Based on your symptoms, it sounds like you may be experiencing palpitations. Palpitations can be caused by various factors such as stress, caffeine intake, dehydration, or underlying medical conditions. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try taking a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol at a dose of 25-50mg once daily. Additionally, it is important to stay hydrated, avoid caffeine and alcohol, and practice relaxation techniques to reduce stress. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it is recommended to seek further evaluation from a healthcare professional.

It's generally safe to use Moxikind (moxifloxacin) for cold and Monocef (cefixime) for cough together. However, consider the following: _Phensedyl (cough syrup)_: Avoid using Phensedyl with Moxikind and Monocef without consulting your doctor, as it may interact with antibiotics. _Consult your pediatrician_ before administering these medications together, especially if your child has any underlying medical conditions or is taking other medications. Also, ensure you: 1. Complete the full course of antibiotics as prescribed. 2. Follow the recommended dosage and administration instructions. 3. Monitor your child's condition and report any adverse reactions or concerns to your pediatrician.

This sensation is known as pulsatile tinnitus and can be caused by various factors such as increased blood flow near the abdomen. I recommend you to consult with a doctor for further evaluation. You can take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen (Tylenol) for any discomfort.
