Bactrim Helped Leg Pain

I was prescribed Bactrim because of an upcoming biopsy. Funny thing, my legs have been hurting for years, hard to even sit sometimes, and I walk with a limp. After a week on Bactrim these symptoms went away. I sure would like to know why. Three days after finishing the prescription the pain came back.

That is very unusual, since it is a sulfur based antibiotic, it's most often known to cause the exact opposite and cause pain in people that are sensitive or allergic to it.

You can learn more Bactrim details here.

I really can't say why it may have helped.

Have you ever had any testing done to see what's causing the pain?
