Pain made worse by anti-inflammatory
I've had severe back and chest pain for the last four months. My pain went from 6-7 to 9-10 when put on Arcoxia, after I quit it went back to what it was before. Now I've been prescribed Prednisone 20 mg a day and the bay has again been made a lot worse (9-10). Could this point to the pain being caused by a bacterial infection?
