Could Antibiotics Have Caused Your Tennis Elbow, Golfer’s Elbow Or Other Tendon Pain?
Update: 2023-07-15
Description
Is there a link between certain antibiotics (and other drugs) and tendon disorders like Tennis Elbow, Golfer’s Elbow, Rotator Cuff injuries (and other tendon issues) – And even tendon ruptures?
Yes, there’s a class of antibiotics called ‘Fluoroquinolones’ that have been know for decades to cause various forms of tendon damage – (Cipro being the most well-known and commonly prescribed.)
“As of July 2008, the FDA mandated that all FQ products have a black-box warning indicating an increased risk in adverse events including tendon rupture.”
And in this episode, Allen Willette, from Tennis Elbow Classroom goes into detail about these antibiotic-induced tendon injuries, including:
Which specific antibiotics have a risk of tendon damage
How these drugs can damage your tendons (and even joints)
How these injuries differ from "typical" tendon injuries
And thoughts on how one might recover from these injuries
