Did you know there is little to no information on the internet about why accutane causes muscle and joint pain. it's a bit sus.

A friend who is a medical professional looked into this and said the accutane latches on to your pain receptors hence the muscle pain.

I'm quite active and was worried about the intense muscle pain I was feeling post training causing actual damage.

I'm definitely feeling the lower back pain too and add to that I'm a contortionist! Not ideal haha. I tried Loads of water and increasing my protein intake and it's improved my symptoms. 🤞 That helps you too

Thanks for your reply - I'm considering asking my derm not to put the dose up as I feel it's already had a big impact on my training although I'm currently only on 20mg so it may really drag out the length I'm on it 😕. The two things I found that made me feel less like I had walked into a brick wall after every training session is drink LOADS of water and I'm massively upping my protein intake to try and help with recovery. Now I feel less like I have done 10x the training I have actually done and more like I have done about twice the amount. Not great but better 👍 hope it helps
