General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

In my opinion your symptoms are not related to the use of the Z-pack.
I suggest you to go for a check up at your physician.
Meanwhile, I suggest you to use anti inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen three times a day for the pain.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi,
