Hello,

I am sorry but there is nothing you can do yourself.You should continue medications.Avoid any strain on back.For this actually you should visit your doctor.Since even after medication you are having pain, you will need MRI of spine this time.

After that the doctor might plan more aggressive treatment for this.

Regards.
