Hello doctor! I am having acid reflux and am taking medication to treat it. However, when I took the medicine for two days, my bones started to ache. So should I stop taking the medicine or continue using it?
Hope the doctor can help me, thank you!

Hello! Osteoarthritis pain has many causes, the doctor needs more information to conclude what is the cause of bone pain, from which to conclude whether to stop the current drug or not. Therefore, doctors recommend you to register for an examination at a gastroenterology or general internal medicine clinic at hospitals of Vinmec Health System nationwide for a more thorough examination and consultation!
Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Best regards!
