You're there: Aside from gastric and duodenal corrosion that much Motrin can cause you are likely describing analgesic rebound by virtue of taking a dose of analgesic which wears off in a short time requiring you take more. You should speak with a pain management specialist who can help you detox from the Motrin and get you on a more rationale regime nod drugs or an intervention with more significant effects.
