Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
You have got some infection in the chest and for that you have used the Z pack, the pain could be due to the phlegm in the lower lobe of the lung, or may be due to the gastric irritation due to the Z pack.
Tingling in the fingers suggests the infection in the lower lobe of the lungs.
I advise you to consult a chest physician for diagnosis and treatment.
wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
