Painful Neck. Using Oxycodone. History Of Herniated Disc And Knee Replacement. Alternative Medication?
I go to the Pain Center and have few issues I'm dealing with. I have chronic pain in my neck due to 2 herniated discs from a car accident and now had a bad fall 2 years ago and permanently injured my knee. I have had one surgery and now need a knee replacement. My pain Dr. has just changed my dose of Oxycodone to 20 mg qid. Is there more than one manufacture for this strength. I wanted off the Morphine so that is why he raised this.

Hello,
I have studied your case.
You can start percocet consulting your treating doctor.
Exercises-
neck rotation, shoulder shrugging, slow and gradual movement of neck.
You can consult physiotherapist for help.
You can use soft cervical collar when needed
Check your vit B12 level through blood test.
Take care
