How Can A Herniated Disc In The Neck Be Treated?
I currently take oxycodone 15 mg. I have a bulging disk in my neck. Is there another medication I can take with the oxy to help with the pain? My Dr. Says they can t prescribe over 100 mg of anything. Is that total or just individual meds? She also told me that a bulging disc is considered nothing really in the world of pain.
