How Can severe Back Pain Be Treated?

Hello my son has recently hurt his back. He has been seeing a physical therapist. The doctor that he is seeing now is a specialist. They have given him Mobic 7.5 to help with the pain. That is all they have given him I have looked it up to see what Mobic does. He is still having tremendous pain. He has been doing everything the doctor and the physical therapist have told him to do. He has not been able to get relief by using heat or cold. On occasion he has come to me and beg for a pain pill because the pain is too much to bear. Can you tell me what else we can do to help him. He does his exercises the physical therapist have given him. He does everything that the doctor tells him with little relief. Can you give me some ideas on what else we May try to help him be able to rest. We are wondering what the Mobic 7.5 does so that we can see what else we might be able to do over the counter. They ve not giving him anything for pain other than Mobic. This problem with his back started with lifting a heavy box at work. His job is at a moving company. He enjoys his job and would like to get back to work as soon as possible. He doesn t lift or move or push anything more than 20 pounds which is the amount the doctor said he can lift. Hey just need some relief so he can rest and sleep. I would happily pay the $15 unless it s going to be the same answer the doctors have given him. If it is the same answer the doctor and physical therapist of giving him and you re just going to say there s no other hope for him to relieve the pain I feel it is not worth any more money to tell if there s nothing else we can do if there s some way you can tell me you can help him another way or with different medicine I will gladly pay the $15. Please let me know that you can give him something different in a medicine or stretch that he has not already been given I will pay the $15 thank you. It is only in his muscle and ligaments that have been hurt it s been a couple of months now and yet again today he can barely sit. He has only asked for pain medicine four times in the last 2 months. I would like to know what else we can do because the doctors and therapists or not relieving the pain with this Mobic. Is there something else over the counter that we can use that might help the pain he continues to use ice and then heat to try and help relieve the pain. Any ideas? Send
