General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

From your description, I am of the opinion that the drug your friend prescribed would definitely help as it's an opioid. But still, You should continue the physiotherapy sessions that would help you in the long run. You could apply local ice packs too.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ashish Ranjan, General & Family Physician
