That's very serious process and it needs time to recover from such an illness, so it's better to ask more specialists before doing anything. I can just say from my ow experience. Few years ago I had a back trauma and my doctor advice me to try corticosteroids for pain management. It really helped, but it depends on the problem you have. Corticosteroids are especially efficient for alleviation of metastasis pain in bones, visceral painful sensations and neuropathic painful sensations. Being adjuvant agents, corticosteroids act as a pain reducers.
