General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,

First of all, it's sad to know what you had been going through lately.

Based on the history you have shared, you need to use oral OTC analgesics like acetaminophen or Ibuprofen along with more potent analgesics like Tramadol. Capsaicin topical gel can be used as well. Bride topical is another option.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Saddiq Ulabidin, General & Family Physician
