Can I get some injectable analgesics for relieving my pain?

Resolved question:

I have been suspected to have medial meniscus tears in both of my knees. My doctor prescribed to take tramacet for this. But I cannot swallow it as it is a tablet. Is there any other painkiller which can be administered through injection in muscles or in veins?

Thanks for your question. There are a lot of injectable analgesics which are used to relieve pain. But commonly, they are used to relieve pains in hospitalized patients in their unconscious states. Almost all of them are prescribed drugs and are administered by specialized personnel. If you are  unable to take tablets, you can powder it and take it by mixing in your favourite juice.
