duybeeGAshantiGA Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 You need to be in details cuz saying "back pain" doesnt provide much information? What exaxtly is the area? Lower back ? Upper back? In the middle close to the spine? To the sides? Usually it's the lower back tho. But also you need to know the cause of the pain to have the suitable solution.

Dante Silva Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 (edited) I have the worst back pain ever so it's spooky reading this thread. I have been on Diclofenac, Naproxen and Ibuprofen (all NSAID's, none of them work). I also added 1000mg of turmeric to my evening meal for four days in a row (that never worked either). I am now on a strength of Co-Codamol that can only be got on prescription and it's only giving mild relief. (Be thankful if you are not limping and can still walk straight).
