As per your description, it looks like musculoskeletal pain.
I prescribe Skeletal muscle relaxant tablet containing Thiocolchicoside to my patients with similar complaints.
The pain in the abdomen can be due to junk food.
I prescribe Pre and Probiotic capsule along with Proton pump inhibitor like Rabeprazole for this.
