If it's locking up, maybe a relaxer or a benzodiazepine would help? And hydrocodone is less extreme.

What type of pain is it....nerve, muscle? What kind of injury did you have? What types of meds and treatments have you already tried...physical therapy, ultrasound, massage, etc.

I have recently added Hemp oil to my tool bag for pain. Hemp oil comes from cannabus but doesn't have THC and as such is legal but it must be Hemp oil. There are a couple different strengths. The one I take is 500mg and comes in bottle with a dropper you put the oil under the tongue. IT helps me sleep and doesn't make me increase my nausea like oxy did. I use it with my medication. I don't know if that helps but let me know if you want more information.
