HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if the pain is the main concern then it need to be treated with NSAID and best drug is Tab Diclofenac, steroid can only reduce the inflammation and may not subside the pain as long as steroid is concern (Prednisone ) it is advisable to have advise from your physician hope this information helps.
I find this answer helpful
