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 sister was hurt at work. she sees a chiropractor but he cant prescribe any pain meds. he took an mri and found three buldging discs. two outward and one inward. she also has a nasty pinched nerve that causes pain all the way down her arm. workers comp is dragging their feet to help her. is there anything that we can give her to relieve pain and help with inflammation. its so bad she cant sleep.
Hello She needs an experienced chiropractor to get rid of the root cause.
However to get relief from pains I would suggest her to take Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as aspirin, ibuprofen, or naproxen. This help in inflammation too.
Thanks Dr. Tripat Mehta
