Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Swollen Joints And Hands While On Amoxicillin?
My sons joints and hands are swelling up after taking amoxicillin. He was prescribed it to knock out a biological infection. After checking with his doctor they called in another medicine however his symptoms seem pretty sever. He had paint in knee joints and can hardly move them along with very swelled hands.
It might be due to allergic reaction.
As of now you can take antihistamines like Pheneramine for symptomatic relief. If symptoms persist you can consult a physician and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
