Is Lasix Pill Advisable For Severe Pain And Swelling?
I got a cortisone shot this afternoon (7-20) and the pain is unbearable. I finally took an oxycodone pill 3 hours ago. Pain is bearable but unable to sleep. I have had these same injections before. Never had pain and swelling like this. I have tried ice but I think it made my knee worse. Because of the swelling, can I take a Lasix pill ? I would appreciate your opinion. Thank you for being there.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is the pain condition then diuretic will not work here and it is better not have this, but underlying cause of the pain is more concern, you have not given what kind of disease you have, not even said anything about the age and gender else something better could have been advised hope this information helps.
