Basically all pain management can be categorised broadly into 4 parts.. 1. pain medications 2. physiotherapy 3. steroids(contorversia) 4. surgical intervention. That being said.. the first thing is to get the basic investigations such as an xray. assuming you got that and the pain is not yet relieved after 6 weeks duration, please consider getting an mri done. For now, Just to get pain relief, you can consider buying any over the counter drug such as paracetamol twice a day (less effective). If you have a physician within your reach, just see if it is possible to get a prescription medication such as NSAID aceclofenac/diclofenac and Muscle relaxant- Thiocolchicoside 4 or 8 mgs. Hope this helps Thank you
