Good alternative pain medication?

Question

My boyfriend broke his hand yesterday and have to have surgery. He was prescribed Vicadin though is still in a lot of pain. He's currently trying to get in touch with his doctor to be prescribed a stronger pain killer, though in the mean time I figured I would see if there's a natural pain killer that could supplement the Vicadin until he gets a hold of the doctor, possibly something that could make him drowsy so he can rest.

If anyone knows of anything, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Answer 1

The only alternative I can suggest is on a cellular level. Getting your body realigned to it's natural state. The company that has been applauded and world recognized for it's cellular renewal and wild mushroom extracts and MUCH more has been

You should really check out their products as well as the testimonials. FAST2SLEEP would be an excellent start - as with AGARIGOLD (exotic mushroom) I have never felt more balanced and healthy in my life. Light and blessings to you!

Answer 2

Vicodan is pretty powerful already.  

He may want to supplement with Ibuprofen, Acetominophen or Naproxen.

Ice is mother natures' painkiller.

Answer 3

two words: cold water.

but only if his wound has closed.

for local application water around 12 degrees C seems best, while systemically (a gradual cold shower) the best temperature is around 20 degrees C.

Answer 4

As far as prescription pain medications go he could ask his doctor about percocet or something containing oxycodone. Oxycodone tends to be a little stronger than hydrocodone. But for now over the counter stuff like Tylenol or Aleve. Tylenol P.M would be great if he doesn't drive or operate machinery. That way the sleep might mask the extra pain.

Answer 5

Vicodin is pretty strong. It contains containing hydrocodone and paracetamol. Hydrocodone are some of the most powerful painkillers on the market.

It may interact with other drugs that cause drowsiness. So I would be very careful taking anything else while taking it, unless a doctor tells you other wise.
