I Have Unbearable Pain In My Lower Spine

Hi, I am suffering unbearable pains in my lower spine. Doctors told me that at some parts between there is no more gel. They told me nothing can be done. Since I don t like to take this strong painkillers with codeine, I only take glucosamine with condroitin. I was told there is also a cream with these ingredients to relieve the pain.? Thannks
