rotator cuff

(2 discussions)

About three to four weeks ago I was given Levaquin 500 for a sinus infection to be taken one a day for ten days. On the sixth day I began having pain in my shoulders, upper arms and across shoulder blades. After reading the prescription info I read that this med could cause tendon problems.
Thus, I quit taking the med.
I am still having pain – sometimes severe and mostly in the right arm, etc.
The left area seems better. Can I expect this pain to gradually subside or should I see a doctor?

    Well, if the drug side effects stated it could cause tendon issues I would go see a doc if you are having pain just make sure all is ok.
