A member asked:

My 18 month old is taking amoxicillin. she is grabbing her genitalia and crying in pain. should i keep her on the medication. ?

Call treating doc: I can see no reason taking this antibiotic would trigger the behavior or pain. It may be related to another treatable issue. Her doc should guide you.
