Suggest Treatment For Lower Back And Hip Pain Alongwith Stiffness
I am on day three of tamiflu which was perscribed as a preventative. This morning I woke a little more tired than usual. By 1 pm my lower back and hips became stiff and began to hurt. I am wondering if this is caused by the tamiflu and if I should continue with it. Some other possibly related information is that I have had hip pain twice in the recent past that usually starts approx 3 days into a 6 day dose of prednisone. My doctor feels I should no longer use steroids in the future.
