So I posted a few days ago about leg pain and foot pain and calf pain.
It seems to have flared up again, my achilles is really really bothernig me. It aches and feels very tight both of them. Everything feels inflammed in my legs.I am just alil nervous. Its more tendon pain then joint pain.
I have tried Arnica cream with some relief not much. Is there anything else to try. I have tried Epsom Salt Baths. Heating Pad, Ice, you name it.
Could this be a Bart herx. This is my third week of Septra I am finally at full dose in morning and half dose in evening...
Pain isnt usally a big symptom for me.
Any help would be apperciated. Thanks

Hi Tricia. I had the same thing happen to me. Both calves were tight as we're the tendons right below.
Drink lots of water, increase potassium. It goes away. Mine lasted five days
Definitely Bart.

Thanks so much. It has seem to calm down a lot since monday. I have been 3 weeks on Bactrim. I Hope the herxig from that is on its way out.
Boy was it a tough drug

I had AWFUl Achilles pain initially. It was Bart. It went away with treatment. (although I needed to do physio a d stuff for it, because it screwed up my ankles like I had had regular tendinitis)
