Suggest Remedy For Severe Pain

I seem to be very resistant to painkillers, my latest is tramadol, I ve been on it for 3 days and for sure can feel it s side effects but as per usual it s not helped the pain. I got given two weeks work but my doctor said by 3 days I should know of it will help with the pain or not. It s not touched the pain. What would the next painkiller to try? I ve been on cocodamol, codydramol, amytriptaline, naproxen, zapain and tramadol. I am worried about going on more opiates since I go back to University I m September need tone able to cognitively function but also be in as little pain as possible. Thank you.

As per your explanation. I understand you are in pain. But why you are in pain?,what problem you have ? Since when you are having this problem and pain related to this ? Since when you know your body is resistance with pain killer ? Need to know all above things. Which you have not mention.
So here I am giving you general guideline.
Treat the cause of pain not the symptoms. As well do regular exercise, take good sleep, have balance diet and keep a positive attitude. This four things will help you I believe in your life to fight against the pain better way then just taking a pain killer. Apart from this for loacalise pain you can also use hot and cold pack to have some more relaxing and anti inflammatory effects. In your diet remember to keep more of omega 3 because its a natural anti inflammatory and helps for many other problems in our body.
Hope this was useful for you. Ask your question again if needed. Take care.
