Suggest Medication For Pain In Left Foot And Lower Back Due To An Injury

During soccer practice we ran laps around the field and during those laps I landed hard on my left foot/heel and jolted my lower back and it has been hurting for a week or two. I ve tried yoga stretches, icing, and heating but it s still in pain. What should I do?
