For the past few days I have been experiencing fatigue; spasm-like pains that come and go in my lower rib area; outer ear (helix).  On top of this, I tend to get chills throughout the day, and night sweats in the middle of the night.  I first suspected influenza, but I have had no respiratory symptoms to speak of.  The only thing that seems to temper the pain is tylenol--at least temporarily.
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Ideally ECG and 2d echo should be done first in your case. If both are normal than no need to worry about heart diseases. Possibility of musculoskeletal pain is also there. Ibuprofen is anti-inflammatory. You will definitely improve witChatDoctorbination of painkiller and muscle relaxant Chat Doctor.  Also apply warm water pad on affected areas. Avoid movements causing pain. But better to first rule out lung infection also with a chest x-ray.Don't worry, you will be alright. Hope I have solved your query. Wish you good health. Thanks.
