What Can Cause Severe Burning Sensation And Pain In The Ankles While On Levofloxacin?
Hello, I was prescribed Levofloxacin and took the entire 10 day course. At day 8 I had the mild rash on my face and some swelling but unfortunately I did not relate it to the meds. The course ended about 10 days ago but I now have excessive burning in my feet and pain in my ankles. Will these symptoms continue? if so for how long? Should I see a physician?

Hi,
It is not related to Levofloxacin.
As a first line management, you can take analgesics like Acetaminophen or Diclofenac for pain relief.
If symptoms persist better to consult an orthopedician and get evaluated.
