A member asked:
What do you advise if i suffer from terrible back pain and my gp won't prescribe me better painkillers?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pinched Nerve: Sounds like you have a pinched nerve in your back. I would suggest seeing a pain/spine specialist to evaluate you further to evaluate what level and what can be done to treat you. There are interventional treatments besides medications and surgeries that might reduce or eliminate the pain altogether.
