Suggest Treatment For Back Pain While Having Osteoarthritis

I am 27 and have osteoarthritis. I clean houses, bartend and am a nail tech, all of which are hard on my back. I did physical therapy, which didn't work. I went to pain management and the doctor prescribed me Lidoderm patches. My back hurt worse after using the patches. I feel like I'm going crazy! What can I do for my pain? Aleve Tylenol and Asprin's do not help at all! I was taking 4 aleve a day with no help!
