DEAR FRIEND I UNDERSTOOD YOUR PROBLEM, INFECT I WILL NOT SUGGEST YOU TO GO FOR SUBOXONE AS IT HAS SO MANY ADVERSE AND UNWANTED EFFECTS.
Suboxone contains a combination of buprenorphine and naloxone. Buprenorphine is an opioid medication. An opioid is sometimes called a narcotic. Naloxone is an special narcotic drug that reverses the effects of other narcotic medicines.

Suboxone is used to treat narcotic (opiate) addiction. It is not for use as a pain medication.
IF YOUR CONCERN IS PAIN THEN SO MANY OTHER TREATMENT OPTIONS ARE THERE.
I WOULD SUGGEST YOU GO FOR PHYSIOTHERAPY TREATMENT TAKE ULTRASOUND ID ONE POINT PAIN IS THERE. IF MULTIPLE LEVEL PAIN IS THERE THEN GO FOR IFT OR TENS THERAPY WHICH HAS NO ADVERSE EFFECTS... HOPE YOU SATISFIED WITH MY ANSWER...
