Hello,
Thank you for using Healthcaremagic.
I read your question and understood your concern.
The strongest over the counter medicine is VOLTAREN ( tablets)
You can try those but after eating as it may give you stomach upset.
Also you can combine with some physiotherapy procedures such as ultrasound.
Wish you quick recovery.
