Do not mask pain: You describe a typical treatment of pills, followed by pills.... I suggest you seek a solution rther than masking the pain with pills. A neurologist or pain management physician can help with diagnosis, and pain managment may have minimally invasive treatments to recommend. Again, do not rely on pills, please.

Yes: When one does not respond to medication that iss upposed to help and has continued pain - seeing the doctor is a good idea.
