Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. Your iron level is low so you need iron supplements. But it will not help ypu to releive pain immediately. You should take analgesic drug with muscle relaxant to get releif.
Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer.
Thanks for using health care magic.
