Hi I have hd severe back pain for years. I am 26 with two kids and overweight at 5 7 and 265 pounds. I also have polycystic ovaries.. I am taking adipex and had xrays along with blood tests for thyroid work done. Results have not come back. For my pain my doctor perscribed tramadol which made me sick so instead she perscribed napoxin for pain, but I have read numerous bad reports of this medication. Is it safe? I need something to cover the pain until we see xray results. What should I do?
Dear-thanks for using our service and will try to help you with my medical advice. First, Naproxen should be taken with some food to avoid more damage to the walls of the stomach. It is a safe Chat Doctor. If that is the case, then avoid it. You can take Acetaminophen to avoid the side effects of Naproxen or just alternate with both for the chronic pain. It depends on the X-ray results, you might be a candidate for physical therapy or epidural block. Weight loss will help the back problem too.
