What Are The Alternate Methods Of Back Pain Management?

Hi I m currently taking oxycodone 7.5 -325 tablets for severe back pain as a result of a serious car accident. I am no longer seeing my pain doctor and have been referred to a back surgeon. Multiple pain injections have not worked. Iv e tried other pain meds, but the oxycodone has been the only med that relieves my pain.

Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

I feel physiotherapy might be the best alternative to treat the back pain. As in physiotherapy there are machines which relieve pain (ift, Tens) then along with it there are numerous exercises which you can do based upon your condition. And go for core muscles strengthening it can releive pain to much extent.

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

Regards,
Dr. Harsh Swarup
