Prescribed Ciprofloxacin For Bronchitis. Cough Improved But Have Sore Gums, Teeth, Jaw, Headache. Lethargic. Reason For Symptoms?
Hi, I've just had a bout of bronchitis 2 weeks ago and was prescribed Ciprofloxacin for 7 days. My cough got better and I thought I was on the mend, but 3 days ago I started to feel unwell again and now have a headache with extremely sore gums, teeth and jaw, which is slightly relieved by taking Nurofen. I also feel very lethargic. Had a blood test yesterday to see if I had glandular fever, but this was negative and all other organs were normal. What else could this be, I've never experienced sore gums etc. before?
With many thanks
Kindest regards
