HI
Thank for asking to HCM
Your concern and query is appreciated, I wont advise you to take the medicine again but the underlying cause of the pain is matter of concern, because it may not be the pain due to same reason again but it may be something different.
Even if you are thinking to start the medicine again then confirm the previous inflammatory condition is still there.
hope this information helps.
