Suggest Medications For Back Pain

Hi sir. I have a bad back and my dr. doesn t prescribe pain pills to any patients. I don t leave the house much but my pain keeps me from living a decent life. I m having surgery but due to the seriousness of it, I d like to put it off until fall. Im on medicare and Medicaid. Do online drs. accept insurance?

Dear patient
If your back pain is serious enough and you have been advised surgery for it then I would advise to go for surgery. Analgesics if taken for long time leads to gastric and kidney side effect and hence it should be avoided. If you want u can take tab ultracet p twice a day. Tab flupirtine thrice a day can also be taken. Online insurance cannot be accepted.
