Physiotherapy for six days may not be enough.  They are supposed to give you things to do at home---  then you are to comply and keep on the program they give you.  That can often resolve it.  Non steroidal anti inflammatory medication is to be taken (NSAIDS).  That's the main line of therapy.  If severe, unfortunately, often surgery is required.  I would follow up with your doctor for your next step.  good luck
