Does Intake Of Ibuprofen Help In Reducing Severe Pain In Back And Shoulder?

I have been on 20mg of prednisone for a week due to an allergic reaction. On the skin. My back and should hurt unbearably but tolerable. Can I take 200mg of ibuprophen for the pain, so I can sleep tonight? I did not take a prednisone tab today. I was trying to see how side effects they were affecting my body
