Walking difficulties during long-term reactive arthritis treatment require a medical evaluation since they may indicate ongoing disease, joint injury, or involvement of the muscles or nerves. Instead of depending solely on painkillers like Flexon MR, you should schedule an assessment, blood tests, and imaging with a rheumatologist or orthopedic physician as soon as possible.
