Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My husband is feeling a sharp pain in his back. It s more to the right and around his shoulder blade? He went to the emergency here in Dallas and they took x-rays and blood test but they didn t find anything so they prescribed muscle relaxers and Ibuprofin. Neither medication helped. I feel so bad for him I don t know what to do?
If the pain is of short duration like for a day then take some analgesics like Paracetamol. If the problem persists for more than two to three days, then consult an orthopedician.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Suhas Chauhan
