Hi, Thank you for providing the brief history of you. A thorough neuromuscular assessment is advised. As mentioned, medicines do not give a side effect of soreness or joint pains, medicines give symptoms like - nausea, skin rashes, constipation, etc. Now, coming to your musculoskeletal problems, you have tender and sore fingertips, feeling of needles in knee and shoulder, you need a thorough musculoskeletal assessment.These reactions could be due to some other factors like soft tissue pathology or a nerve pathology, which post assessment can be understood better. Also, performing regular exercises will help to improve the metabolism and immune system. Once, the root cause of the problem is identified the proper measures of treatment planning will be taken.
