I prefer to display this as it seems this works well for me. I have noticed a number of my patients have complained about their joint pain and/or sore throat. My Dr would only give me a short course of antibiotics before complaining about their symptoms. My suggestion to consult your doctor is to take Ciprofloxacin + Tinidazole at the first sign of a back pain or pain. They will tell you the benefits of the medicine and the risks and withdrawal symptoms if this drug is used for a long time. This medicine helps treat infections caused by anaerobic bacteria and protozoa.
