Doc has given me a load of tablets and told me not to rest but to keep on the move to exercise it

Gentle excercise to stop it stiffening up and probably muscle relaxlents? Diazepan does it for me when its severe. Dont go on to tramadol for too long. Great pain killer but I got addicted to them very quickly and they are hell to get off.
