Trapped nerve - see GP or use same medication as prescribed before (same condition)

In April I suffered badly with a trapped nerve in my left shoulder, had physio plus prescribed 500mg naproxen, with a side order of omeprazole 40g

Eventually it went, but appears to have cone back. Same dull achey pain from shoulder, down my back and along my arm.

Am tempted to pick up as I left before (still have a box of each left), rather than try and get a gp appt. Also took nurofen plus as directed by gp at the time.

Naproxen is just like ibroprofen isn't it? As long as they are in date and you aren't on any other medication then I don't see why you couldn't? I am not medically trained though. Could you phone the GP and check if its ok?
