Brief Answer:
Side effects of the treatment.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for posting your query.

These symptoms you have mentioned are the side effects of treatment. You should report to your consultant for a proper clinical evaluation and change of medication, if needed. Most often, they subside spontaneously when the medication is stopped. If not they generally are managed easily.

Though not serious, these side effects can cause much discomfort and do need to be seen by a doctor. Abdominal bloating, nausea, vomiting, burning, itching, rash, swelling and redness of the vulval region also can occur as side effects.

Hope your query has been answered. Please feel free to contact for further clarifications. I will be happy to help.

regards,
Shanti.V.
