Brief Answer:
Hello dear. You need investigations

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear. I understand you having a lot of pain. You can take opioid analgesics like tramadol or tapentadol. You may also take simple analgesics like diclofenac depending upon the need. Hiwever if pain is too severe, you may require either a morphine or pethidine shot.
Adrenal cortex tumor will require investigations depending upon the sign and symptoms including some blood tests for the hormonal evaluation as well as some imaging tests.
You need to consult a local oncologist for above tests as well as well as for the prescription for opioids.
Hope that will work for you.
