Yes, it can cause tendinitis, especially of the Achilles tendon, which may present as sudden pain, swelling, bruising, tenderness, and stiffness above the heel. Tendinitis can occur during treatment or even months after stopping, especially if you're on steroids or have had an organ transplant. Tendinitis is inflammation of a tendon, and recognizing symptoms early can prevent further injury.
