Detailed Answer:
Hi there,
Thanks for posting your query.
I am Dr.Barani and I am pleased to assist you.

Yes, it is safe to take Prednisolone.

But I would advise you to wait for the Xray and other test results before changing medications.
Till then you can continue taking Brufen and muscle relaxant.

Let me know if you have any more questions.

Dr.Barani
