I personally have not taken Ibuprofen for either of those symptoms but my doctor did prescribe Amitriptyline for nerve pain in my hip. It's technically an anti-depressant but isn't really used for that purpose anymore as they discovered it works better on nerve pain. Anyway, I never took it because it has a nasty side effect of weight gain but I thought I'd mention it to you as something you could bring up to your doctor as a possible treatment.
