Antibiotics May Cause Tendon Ruptures

The title says it all, antibiotics may cause tendon ruptures so if you are taking it and there’s tendon pain, swelling or inflammation, stop taking it and consult with your doctor! See WebMD article. I was given antibiotic through IV initially hospitalized for 9 days straight. I don’t remember if I had it other times. They also use antibiotic to treat urinary tract infection.
