Brief Answer:
This drug will not relieve your pain.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Methocarbamol is muscle relaxant. It is not painkiller.
So Methocarbamol will not be helpful in your case.
You should take painkiller like ibuprofen.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
