Hi, My husband has two spinal injuries ;bulging discs either side of Wallace implant in lower spine.He has been on a combination of gabapentin, tramadol ,panadol and in the last year prendison has been add for arthritis which is in his spine, hips and knees. Gabapentin has been changed to lyrica and he is now experiencing body rashs that cover large parts of his body. Our docter doesn't seem to know what is causing it and nothing seems to help it .Could one of these drugs be the cause/how else can we manage his pain and lower leg spasms

His body rash can be due to one of these medicines and we can not say it till confirmation can be done by withdrawing medicines. If his rash get better after stopping drugs then it means that drugs were responsible. If it does not improve after medicines stopped then find out other causes.
