Hi,
If Cymbalta and Tramadol have failed to control the pain, addition of conventional non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs as well as acetaminophen may be tried to compliment the effects but if problem persists surgical repair or nerve blocks may be needed so pain medicine specialist should be consulted.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
