Suggest Medication For Arthritis In A Person With Hepatitis B
An ENT Doctor told me that I have a touch of arthritis in my TMJ. Is there anything I can take or do to reduce the pain? I have had hepatitis B and can t take Tylenol, bleeding ulcer so I can t take aspirin, and a myocardial infarct so I can t take Aleve. I don t understand why the doctor didn t treat me while I was in his office for a suspected ear infection, but which he says is something else.
