sup guys, chronic pain anon here
I have a weird upper back ache that I can never seem to get rid of
I had 3 bulged discs in my neck one of which was fairly moderate
but now my neck is (mostly) ok
just that my upper back is always aching and sometimes it is really bad
I can never get all the way pain free
Tylenol seems to get me the most benefit for cost and ease of use and low side effects, I have muscle relaxers but they just make me sleepy. A beer is pretty good but only gets me through an hour or two. Ibuprofen tears my stomach up if i take it more than 2-3 days in a row.
What are my options, I don't think I'm needing opiates, I did some tramadol and when I was in very severe pain and more recently injured, it was helpful.
