I understand your concern . Going by your history I feel there is viral myalgia which means pain due to viral infection. I would anyway do a blood test to rule out bacterial causes and give him NSAID drugs like Ibuprofen to reduce suffering from pain, For stomach pain ass Di cyclomine syrup. I think I have explained and suggest you to review with your doctor. Regards.
