What Do Red Rashes On The Face After Taking Vimovo Indicate?
Hi Doctor, I m Aimee and I have a?about side effects I experienced after taking Vimovo for 4 days. Orthopedist prescribed it for frozen shoulder; after 2 days I noticed bumps and red blotches appearing on my face. Got worse on days 3 & 4. I stopped taking it immediately (now 3 days off) but skin situation only marginally better. Please tell me that this will resolve over time. What can I expect? Thank you. Aimee

Your symptoms seem to be related to an allergic reaction. Some advices that I can give to you are:
-Take oral antihistamines.
-Use calamine lotion for local relief.
-If you don't get better use prescripted corticosteroids.
