HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
If the pain is so severe that it is affecting the quality of your life then you may want to consider consulting a pain specialist.
These are doctors that specialise in the management of any type of pain and would be to prescribe therapy that may be able to help you.

Your doctor may be able to refer you to one of these specialist.
I hope this helps
