A member asked:

I have a lower back injury. i was perscribed naproxen and tylenol 3 and have taken 2 doses so far and no relief,worse pain. what should i do?

Medical check up?: If you pain is not well controlled with the medicines you are using, go see your doctor for further testing and take stronger pain medicine. X-rays of the spine(Like a MRI) may be required in order to find out the degree of trauma/injury to your spine. Go to an ER today if the pain is not bearable.
