can flexeril be the cause?
Brief Answer:
STOMACH ACHE
Detailed Answer:
DEAR XXXXXXX
GLAD TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION.
YOU HAVE NOT DESCRIBED THE PAIN COMPLETELY. STOMACH PAIN AS SUCH IS NOT SIGNIFICANT. I HOPE YOU MEAN PAIN IN THE UPPER ABDOMEN JUST BELOW THE LEFT SIDE OF THE CHEST. IT CAN MEAN SO MANY THINGS. BUT IF IT HAS HAPPENED AFTER THE INTAKE OF DRUG FLEXENIL OR FLEXETIL IT IS LIKELY THAT IT HAS OCCURRED BECAUSE OF THIS ONLY. FOR THIS YOU NEED TO TAKE SOME ANTACID AVAILABLE ON THE COUNTER TO GET THE RELIEF.
IF PAIN IS PERSISTENT YOU NEED TO GIVE COMPLETE DETAILS OF PAIN i.e EXACT SITE OF PAIN, TYPE OF PAIN WHETHER IT IS COLICKY OR CONTINUOUS, IF IT HAS ANY RELATION WITH DEEP BREATHING, ANY AGGRAVATING OR RELIEVING FACTOR, ANY ASSOCIATION WITH NAUSEA OR VOMITING. IS THE ABDOMEN TENDER TO TOUCH AND SO ON. ON THE BASIS OF THIS FURTHER ADVICE CAN BE GIVEN. IF IT VANISHES WITH ANTACID OR WATER INTAKE OR OF ITS OWN THE DRUG MAY HAVE BEEN THE CAUSE.
ANY MORE QUESTION , I WILL BE GLAD TO ANSWER.
