Sayyiduna ‘Uthman ibn Abil ‘As (radiyallahu ‘anhu) once complained of some pain to Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam). Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) advised him:

“Place your hand at the place where you feel pain in your body and say ‘Bismillah‘ three times and seven times ‘A’udhu billahi wa qudratihi min sharri ma ajidu wa uhadhiru‘ (I seek refuge with Allah and His Might against the evil of what I feel and fear)
