Try Alleve. I know that works for my cramps, but it's a very powerful medicine and should help. If not, you should definitly ask your mother! She probably has a lot of medicines that could work for you. If she doesn't know, call you doctor and ask him/her for the right kind of medication for your pains. I hope you get better =)

maybe advil.... you could use a heating pad on your back to help it!

well ask your doctor for some painkillers or something to help. if he doesn't want to give you painkillers then go to the drugstore and get the icy/hot patch for your back. or you could try bayer back and body.

Well the most easy thing would probably ask your doctor for pain killers. If he/she wont give them to you then try heat/cold on your back, it might help a little with the pain.
Also there are exercises you can do that are suppose to help with the pain, Here is a web page you can visit that will list them for you:

I am surprised they haven't tried putting you on something like Vioxx. You need a prescription for it, though. If Ibuprofen isn't cutting it for you, then likely nothing over the counter will (maybe naproxen if you haven't used it much, but I'm personally not a big fan of naproxen). Either way, this is something you really should consult your doctor for... make sure you tell him that ibuprofen just doesn't seem to work - ibuprofen can also cause stomach lining damage over time if you take too much of it - thus things like Vioxx were developed.
