This treatment is being suggested on bases of the information provided. However, I would like to examine & investigate you in detail. Control hypertension, diabetes or any other metabolic disorder, if there is any. Any way these may be tried:

-- Dolokind Plus (Mankind) [Aceclofenac + Paracetamol] 1 talet OD & SOS. X 5 days.
-- Caldikind plus  (Mankind) 1 tablet OD x 10 days. (You may need help of your local doctor to get these medicines.)
-- Fomentation with warm water. Let the part not be exposed to cold.
-- Sleep on a hard bed with soft bedding.
-- Use no pillow under the head.
-- Avoid painful acts & activities.
-- Do mild exercises.
-- Take help of a physiotherapist.
-- Do not ignore, let it not become beginning of a major problem.
-- Do ask for a detailed treatment plan.

Kindly make sure, there is no allergy to any of these medicines. For emergency treatment visit nearest hospital. Wish you a quick recovery & good health.
