Is It Normal To Have Severe Abdominal Cramping, Diarrhea After Taking Silver Sulfa Cream?
Got 2nd degree burn on forearm, 3x4 inches. prescribed silver sulfa cream-healing ok but been having severe abdominal cramping, diarrhea, breaking out in excessive heat/sweats. Is this normal? Am I sensitive to sulfa? Have never used the product before this incident
No this is not related to the cream you applied to your skin, so you need to look back if you had eaten anything unusual or it may because of the burn you have and the electrolytes imbalance it causes.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
