Since this medication, which contains pregabalin, hasn't provided relief, your doctor might consider other options. They may suggest alternative nerve pain medications like gabapentin, or add generic anti-inflammatories and muscle relaxants to reduce stiffness. Physical therapy is also highly effective for bulging and worn discs, helping to relieve pressure on your nerves through targeted exercises. Please consult your specialist to safely transition to a new treatment plan tailored to your recovery.

Since pregabalin and etoricoxib haven't provided relief after three months, the recommended next step is to obtain an MRI of your lumbar spine to see exactly what is pressing on your nerves. For alternative treatments, we can consider targeted epidural corticosteroid injections to reduce inflammation directly at the nerve root, or advanced physical therapy. I also recommend consulting a spine specialist to discuss these options and see if a surgical consultation is appropriate.

Yes, Nervijen Plus injection is indeed used to treat low vitamin B12 levels. This injection contains methylcobalamin, which is an active form of vitamin B12, along with other essential B-vitamins like pyridoxine and nicotinamide. It helps to efficiently replenish your body's vitamin levels, support healthy nerve function, and assist in red blood cell production. It is a very effective and safe option when prescribed by your doctor. Please ensure that you receive this injection under the supervision of a healthcare professional. If you have any more questions about your health.

Your uric acid level of 4.6 is perfectly normal, which is highly reassuring. However, your Vitamin D level of 10 indicates a severe deficiency, which can directly cause bone and joint pain. To correct this, your doctor will likely prescribe a high-dose Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) supplement, commonly 60,000 IU weekly for 8 weeks, along with daily calcium. For knee pain relief, temporary use of paracetamol or ibuprofen can help. Please consult your physician for a physical knee examination and a tailored prescription to safely restore your nutrient levels and improve joint health.

It is very common for this discomfort to persist for a few weeks to several months as your nerves heal. Your medications, Ultracet (tramadol and acetaminophen) and Nervijen P (pregabalin and methylcobalamin), are excellent choices to help manage this pain and support nerve recovery. Since nerve healing is a gradual process, you should see steady improvement over the next few weeks. Please continue taking your medications as prescribed by your doctor, and let them know if the pain remains severe.
