Anyone experience with Indomethacin for EN?

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone,

I am totally new to this- I had my first bout last weekend, it all started with

carpal tunnel in my left arm, and a mysterious pain in the arch of my left foot.

Then the bumps appeared on my legs, I went to urgent care- they had no idea what

it was!!! I self diagnosed after researching the internet. The dermatologist I

saw a couple of days later confirmed this. She prescribed indomethacin. So far,

3 days later, it relieves the pain but the bruising is still there. This

mediation is hard on the kidneys and I am supposed to take it for 3 weeks,

supposedly it reduces the chances of FN coming back....

I will research Penidrone...

ANy pointers greatly appreciated!!

Hi Sabina,

I found Ibuprofen good for the pain, although I know not everyone likes it. I also found the use of cool packs and, oddly perhaps, flight sox, to be helpful. Also a good idea to moisturise to keep the skin supple so splits are less likely.
