Today I lifted leg over dog & the pain was horrendous. Couldn t walk for quite awhile then only limp with much pain. Put brace on got Cain out finally had to use walker from hip surgery.. Used ice also. The pain has gotten little better.. Also a lot of gas.. Shoulder pain gets unbearable.. There is probably more but all pain.. I ve gone on line to read about this antibiotic & I don t know where to find help as to detox & what to do.. Thank you so much.. I also have slight cough & some phlegm.. I was a pretty healthy woman & this drug has taken a toll on my body.. Thank you again
As you do not have any history of injury to knee. So it may be due to over exertion after your hip surgery. For pain you can take tablet Aceclofenac and apply Diclofenac gel or ointment. For UTI kindly consult with physician, you may require antibiotics and basic lab investigation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Shyam B. Kale,
