Hi,
These shooting and burning pain on left side seems to be nerve related. The medicines you had taken are not cause for the pain.
I suggest you to consult an orthopaedician nearby for a detailed examination. You may get the MRI of the area affected under his/her guidance to see any nerve compression.
I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query.
