you shouldn't be suggesting what pain meds to take-this is for the dr to decide. but you should advise him/her of your high pain tolerance..
pain management is really important, especially after a car accident. make sure to tell your dr exactly what you are going through and see that he does his best to help you feel better
fentanyl is a really good pain medication and it comes in a duregesic patch form-you might ask your dr about this. it's a little stronger thant he hydrocodone you are already taking...

I've observed that a heating pad or scorching tub can support relieve cramping (honestly, I as soon as used an electrical blanket grew to become on top). If that does not paintings, then running or different slight endeavor, no longer sufficient to pressure your frame however sufficient to maintain relocating turns out to support. Making definite I've been ingesting sufficient water and feature eaten a minimum of some thing additionally is helping, despite the fact that cramps in most cases make me lose my urge for food. I continuously wish to twist up in mattress, but if I do I more commonly discover that there is not anything to do however be aware of the truth that I'm in anguish, which simply makes me suppose worse. I additionally feel that espresso and chocolate each make me suppose worse, despite the fact that if I do not drink my espresso then I get a headache as a substitute. If you are fairly in anguish and the drugs your health practitioner has encouraged don't seem to be serving to, you then must speak with him/her approximately attempting some thing else. Going on delivery manipulate in the event you don't seem to be already can support keep watch over your interval and lessen cramps as good.
