Physical Therapy Questions

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?

Physical Therapy Questions

Sorry to bother you but I have a question about tendonitis. My Tendons bother me in the the front of my foot from extending my ankle and foot when running etc. It will only bother while I am running and the pain will go away very quitly once I am not straining them anymore. I have to take a phisical for firefighting and I am wondering what excercises I can do to try and strengthen my tendons. Thank you very much

Physical Therapy Questions

Ive been playing the guitar since I was little, now im 14, and a few years ago I fell off a bike and hurt my left arm, I never got a diagnosis and assumed it was a mild sprain that would soon heal. but lately, I can’t even play an entire song on my guitar without extreme discomfort and for the past 6 or 7 months, I feel a long, narrow… something, popping all the way down my arm, when I move it. after use of the arm, it pops like that a lot, and then hurts for a while. sometimes the pain moves into my hhand and next to my thumb as well, but the popping is on the side of my arm and sometimes its particulary loud, loud enough for others to hear. it sounds like cracking your knuckles but in the side of my arm [NOT wrist]. what might this be, and what can I do about it?

Physical Therapy Questions

Doctors say I have a torn ligament L4L5 area and they can’t fix it. I am using 100mg duragesic patch (fentanyl transdermal system) and Lortabs for bleed through pain. I am desperate, it’s hard to live with the constant pain and I’m afraid that they will try morphine next. Why isn’t there something that can be done to reattach or replace a ligament in the back? It’s done for knees and elbows, why not in the back? Can anything be done without surgery to strenghten ligaments.Please help me.
