Managing Pain at Work: What to Do When Meds Don't Help

I bought a portable heating pad (heat really helps me), you can plug it into a battery pack and can wear it anywhere. I use it to work, when I have long car/plane rides etc. and it really helps.

Usually if my meds, PT, etc aren’t managing my symptoms, then it’s an indicator I need to consult for surgery again

Take the worst of day off or icy hot on the sore areas Tylenol and ibuprofen. I find those sticky heat wraps help a little too.
