oh damn, you must have a high tolerance then, id suggest then to try look up exercises to strengthen your back muscles and try then out for a few weeks or see a doctor and go to physical therapy, see how they are. I had fair improvement when i did physical therapy

I had luck with a combo of Meloxicam and Cymbalta. Voltaren topical gel is great too but it can't be taken with Meloxicam.
