I m feeling as if I may be coming down with the flu, I m sore, tired, cold etc....but my specific question is can the paid I m experiencing in my lower stomach region and testicles be related. I ve had the flu before but never have experienced the pain there before. Also I had a flu shot in October, is it common to still get the flu after the flu shot? Thanks

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
As per your query, you have sore and cold which seems to be due to chest infection/chronic upper respiratory tract infection or allergy.
I would suggest you to take diet rich in multivitamins to boost immunity of body. You should take throat lozenges along with nasal sprays and do warm saline gargles. You should take cough expectorants as well.
You should take antibiotic Amoxicilin in combination with antiallergic medicine Sinarest. Visit ENT specialist once and get it examined. You should get x-ray of chest, blood tests and paranasal sinus x-ray done to check sinusitis and start treatment after proper prescription. Avoid oily and sharp food. Drink plenty of fluids.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
