Brief Summary  
The potential participants who are willing to provide a written informed consent form will be asked to come for screening. The main inclusion criteria for the screening procedure will be an NRS score of 5 or above. 
McGill –SFQ will also be taken at the screening which will be considered as the baseline score.  The participants will then be randomized into either of the two groups.  Post dose for every 1hr interval up to 6hrs the participant will be asked to indicate their resting pain intensity and pain relief, using the NRS and PRS scale. McGill-SF questionnaire will be taken at the baseline and end of the study (post 6 hr) to evaluate quality of pain.  
If there is need for rescue medication, then the subject will record pain intensity before taking rescue medication and the consumption recorded.
