Brief Answer:
needs more details
Detailed Answer:
Hi
I am Dr Mittal.
I have read your query.
I think I would be able to help you.
As a physician, I have picked your query because pain management cam definitely be helped by a physician.
I hope to have a better history from you however. I am assuming that the pain started after the fractures. I am also assuming that the pain is located in the leg only and around the fracture areas.
If there is any discrepancy in my assumptions, kindly clarify. Also, I am sure you must have had several medicines already for the pain. I would like you to let me know the same.
Please respond to this query so I may be able to help you.
Best of luck.
Dr Mittal.

Hi
I think I would recommend that you meet with your doctors and discuss the possibility of getting a prescription for these 2 medicines. It might help to meet a PAIN SPECIALIST. If not available, a Neurologist is the next best option.
