My wife is a pediatric pain physician at Seattle Childrens Hospital.

She said you need to get with your doctor and get a serious pain management plan, and if he won't do it, go to one that will.

She mentioned a viscous lidocain solution for topical care, and opioids for general pain. She also said that it is important to keep things cleaned out.

DO NOT let you your doctor be unresponsive to your pain. Doctors are, of course, fearful of turning you into a junkie. Its a well founded fear. But NO pain meds? Thats not right.

Might I suggest that you get a hold of some marijuana? To be clear, this is my idea, not the wifes.
