Cipro Causing Leg Pain
Judy I was prescribed cipro for a uti.
Cipro causing leg pain. Sitting or laying down was so brutal. Being in pain from the surgery and then from the UTI after the doctor on call from the hospital prescribed Cipro I decided to try it again. Took cipro for uti last week and now legs feet ankles shoulders and arms are hurting by.
Pain was insidious in onset gradually progressive and had started to hinder in patients day. However tendonitis is not the only problem these drugs can cause. Prior to that my feet had been burning.
A Nurse told me Cipro and the Floxin family can cause ligament tears even aortic ruptures. 11 Other sites included the triceps epicondyle flexor tendon sheath patellar tendon quadriceps muscle rotator cuff. It works by stopping the growth of bacteria.
I could hardly get my breath. Signs of tendon rupture--sudden pain swelling bruising tenderness stiffness movement problems or a snapping or popping sound in any of your joints rest the joint until you receive medical care or instructions. Ciprofloxacin belongs to a class of drugs called quinolone antibiotics.
Check with your doctor right away if you or your child start having numbness tingling or burning pain in your hands arms legs or feet. It has always been mild mostly feeling discomfort and a little bit of pain and soreness when resting my elbow while driving. After taking 5 250 mg pills my leg started to hurt very very bad.
In rare cases ciprofloxacin may cause damage to your aorta the main blood artery of the body. It will not work for virus infections such as common cold flu. The day after I began taking Cipro and Demerol for pain I could not walk and my leg muscles were terribly sore so I returned to the Doctor for help.
