Brief Answer:
Unfortunately,our service does not include online prescription....
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear XXXX,
I am sorry for the painful situation you are going through.
Unfortunately, our service does not include prescribing medicines (please refer to Terms and Conditions section). You should get the prescription from your physician.
As your back is very sore, I advise as following to ease the soreness:
- apply warm clothing locally
- massage with essential oils (e.g. lavender or olive oil)
- apply over the counter analgesic cream containing ibuprofen or ketoprofene
- take over the counter pain medications (e.g. ibuprofen every 6 hours alternating with mephenamic acid every 8 hours).
If the soreness will not get eased, then, should consult with your physician further or if it is unbearable, should go to ER for immediate evaluation and treatment.
In case of no improvement, should run further diagnostic tests like:
- urine analysis to rule out kidney infection
- complete blood count
- X-ray of the back.
Hope this helps! Wish fast recovery!
