Suggest Treatment For Severe Back Pain

My mother is 70 years old and has continuous pain in her back. The pain does not subside with painkillers but goes away temporarily after taking pregabalin which the doc has given her. But if she stops pregabalin the pain returns after a day or two. What are possible treatments to solve the pain ?

Hi, Welcome to HCM. As pain is relieved by pregabalin, it seems nerogenic pain likely cause is vitamin deficiency.So METHYLCOBALMIN 1500mg daily for nearly one month may be of use.Hope your query answered.
