Hi
First of all it's sad to know what you had been going through lately.
Based on the history you have shared, you may need more potent analgesics like tramadol or gabapentin and nerve pain suppressants like duloxetine etc.
Using OTC analgesics like acetaminophen alongside and supplements for calcium D3 B12 and folic acid may also be helpful.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
