A member asked:

My fiancee has hurt his back. the doc at the clinic gave him tramidol and a steroid shot. it helped, but he is worse now. any suggestions?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Answer depends: It depends on the type of injury, and how long ago the injury occurred. Perhaps the medicine wore off? A lot more information is needed. It would be a good idea to be checked on again.
