HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

Antibiotics can abdominal discomfort, they may also be associated with other abdominal symptoms such as nausea, diarrhea and vomiting.
It is not usually associated with muscle or joint pain.

This is likely from another source.

You can consider monitoring this symptom for now. The use of anti inflammatory pain killers such as ibuprofen, cataflam or naproxen may be helpful.

I hope this helps
