HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if the pain is the only matter of concern and not the cure then it can be managed with any analgesic but important is to bear the pain as long as you could instead of looking for any potent analgesic, but better to try to cure the underlying disease of bone, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
