If you have access to the herb comfrey which can be bought at health shops in a cream form then this many help, I'd ask a doctor though if this is a problem that is getting you down as it may be caused by something that the doctor could cure.

I went to see the doctor several times and they prescribed fastum gel thou, yet it doesnt seem to work on me. did some research online, most of it states cold compression treatment or hot water treatment i wonder which is better.

I think maybe a heat pad would be good as it takes away the pain

Apply the RICE method. Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation. Give it time and plenty of rest. Don't force to move your limb or your injury will get worse.
