Why am I still having severe back pain despite treatment?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello Dr,

I have had a lot of back pain since the injury. Yesterday my brother gave me Ixprim 5, and I felt better. Today I tried Dienfene and Codiphar but it didn't help. It still hurts a lot.

Please help.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I read your query and understood your concern.

I’m really sorry you’re going through this. Severe persistent back pain after trauma should not be dismissed, especially if it has not responded to medications such as Difene (Diclofenac), Codiphar (Codeine and Paracetamol) or Ixprim (Tramadol and Paracetamol).

The fact that the pain is intense every day suggests that it could be something more serious like a muscle tear, spinal injury or inflammation that requires the correct medical assessment. Maybe it is better to wait.

If you experience numbness, weakness, difficulty walking or worsening pain you should seek urgent medical attention ideally within an emergency department or by contacting your doctor immediately.

Also, if your weight is very low for your height, this can affect healing and overall health, so this is something a doctor should evaluate as well.

Don't strain yourself too much until you've been seen. Move slowly. Don't take more than the prescribed dose of medication or mix medications without being told to. So please don’t wait to get checked. You deserve to get proper care and relief from this pain.

I hope this will be satisfactory to you. For more questions, you can contact me at iCliniq.

Thanks.
