How To Control Pain When Suffering From Spinal Cord Issues When On Suboxone And No Other Medication?

Hi Dr. Grief??
How do you control your pain when on suboxone and not taking any pain meds? I have been on suboxone for 15 months and would like to kick the habit immediately.I suffer from spinal cord pain, issues/chronic back and chronic pancreatitis/neuralgia/lfybromyalgia. In serious need of counsel.
THANKS,
Barbara

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
Suboxone itself is a good pain killer but is habit forming. YOu can take a milder pain killer like ibuprofen along with a muscle relaxant. Doing hot fomentation and application of local analgesic gel will also help.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
