My wife wrecked on a four wheeler acident on march 10 and the first visit to the er doctor they prescribed her vicodin 5mg quantity 15 for neck pain and she had cat scans of neck.that was the day of accident.the first doctors visit they said she had a concussion and neck sprainThen about a few days ago on the 20th she had to go again becasue her pain had moved all the way into her back.she was ina lot pain she goes again and they finally do exrays of her back and say she has a strained back and and the concussion still yet.they prescribe her lortab 5 and gave her 30 and ibuprofren and flexaril and she says the pain is still there and the medicine is not working .Should I take her again or will they even do anything for her?
Sprains take up to 6 weeks to subside. The best remedy is to restrict her spinal movements to minimum, that she can do without much discomfort. Let her take painkillers as prescribed under cover of pantoprazole 40 mg empty stomach once a day. Do not jump for too many scans or visits, wait patiently for 6 weeks, reassure her nothing serious and shall be fine .mild tranquilizer Erika 0.25\u00a0mg daily in the evenings would allay all fears.
