No: While long term steroids are necessary for some diagnoses such as COPD, it is NOT indicated for your situation due to many negative side side effects, such as weight gain, water retention, elevated blood sugar, bone softening, and fat redistribution. If you still have pain after the dospak, consider injections, radio frequency ablations and other techniques used by pain physicians. Good luck
