Does anyone fully understand the effects quinalones have on tendons and what, if anything, can fix it? 2 weeks sincelast dose getting worse by the day

Tendonopathy: is not common with fluoroquinolones but clearly does happen. Development of symptoms during treatment is reason to limit activity and have further eval including ultrasound for tendonopathy. Tailored rehab may be necessary. Suggest a visit to Sports Medicine physician. Thanks for trusting HealthTap!
