A member asked:
Is it normal to have post chemotherapy knee/leg pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: It can be very normal depending on the chemotherapy type you received. Some of my patients will complain of joint pains for several weeks. It can be do to the use of steroids in a treatment regimen. Most of my patients do get better from joint pains rather quickly.
