Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Headaches After Taking Medication Post Knee Replacement For BP And Diabetes?
I have been prescribed Mobic after knees replacement, over a year ago. I am experiencing a sick headache for two hours or more after taking the Mobic. I take an array of other medications for diabetics, blood pressure and cholesterol. I also take baby aspirin, the purple pill for an ulcerated esophagus, and several supplements. Am I having a reaction to the Mobic or a combination of drugs.
Based on your complains, medical history, and profession, I think you have carpal tunnel syndrome which is the compression of the median nerve in the wrist region due to overuse. I suggest you to do e nerve examination EMG and then see a hand surgeon, if the results show carpal tunnel syndrome.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Edvin Selmani
