Suggest Remedy For Persistent Pain In Back Post Intake Of Shot In Back For Sciatica
I have sciatica and was given a shot in the back. Unfortunately, I received 12 pokes in my back. Nine or ten of the pokes were misses due to hitting bone . Ever since June 15th, date of the shots, I have experienced pain. My pain management team was not able to prescribe me anything more than Tylenol 3 and a muscle relaxer. I finally had to go to the ER on June 25th. I was given 3 shots of morphine and sent home with a muscle relaxer. The morphine wore off and the pain returned with a vengeance. I had some Tramadal from a previous injury and tried that. This worked but the pain still remains. I don t know what else to do and feel as if no one is trying to help. Do you you have any suggestions of what I should do next? Thank you just for listening! Kim Donna
