Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi , I am suffering of bad aching back bones and thighs since I lifted and moved some decks about 20 days ago . Despite taking pain killers, the pain is still there and does not leave my aching body . Should I visit a doctor , or will it hopefully get better if I wait some more days . Thanks
It is likely that the pain may be related to spasm of the muscles. Muscle relaxants combined with anti inflammatory pain killers would result help to decrease the pain and spasms.
Examples of anti inflammatory pain killers are ibuprofen, cataflam, naproxen, voltaren, aspirin.
You may need a prescription for the muscle relaxant. Examples are baclofen, valium, methocarbamol, metaxalone.
I hope this helps
