Ankylosing spondylitis is a cause of back pain in adolescents and young adults.

Hello, in fourth degree injury no injection give any relived.
Truly speaking I am suffering from just similar complaints. Exactly same. So my doctor advice physiotherapy to strength the thigh muscles. Igot lot of relief. But knee to replace is sure shot. Yet we could not make it. N unable to go for physiotherapy.
So don't believe on any inj results high or low price.
Only pain killer till you arrange knee replacement.

Hi yogesh
Cervical spondylitis is common at your age. By changing medications might not help you much. Ultracet will cause nausea, giddiness too.
You need more physio and safe medications.
Hope he did MRI scan, to see weather anything can be done surgically. Otherwise injections to neck will be much helpful.

Cold compresses can help reduce swelling in the area. Cooling also helps to numb sharp pain. Apply an ice pack for up to 20 minutes, up to five times a day. Use a frozen gel pack, ice cubes in a plastic bag, or a bag of frozen peas. Wrap the cold pack in a soft towel. Do not apply a cold pack directly to skin.
