Anti inflammatory : Degenerative disc disease is very prevalent and nearly everyone will have some radiographic manifestation as they age. It is essentially arthritis. See your doctor to see if your pain is arising from the back. Anti-inflammatories are effective during painful episodes. If it lasts pt can be very helpful.
