I drove from Ft. Lauderdale to Orlando non-stop. When I arrived, my right foot was cramping very badly. I am on prednisone for an eye problem related to Grave s a Disease. I took Tylenol and used warm towels for the pain. However, the next day, I woke up and my left foot hurts, I had to limp all day. Today is Wednesday and it s worse. I am allergic to all NSAID drugs. I am on vacation so I could really use your advice. I am visiting from another country. What should I do? Warm towels etc? Thank you.
