Will medical cannabis treatment can reduce the pain?

Last week, I slipped and fell down the stairs. I didn’t consult a doctor and believed that it will heal on its own. But, the next day, I suffered from severe back pain. I took Ibuprofen and pain relief balms to reduce the pain. But, it was not effective.
I consulted a doctor. He took an X-ray and told me that there was nothing to worry about. He told me that I was fine and asked me to continue with the old medicines. I waited for two more days. The pain still persists. My friend told me that medical cannabis from a clinic in Ontario is really effective in treating the condition.
Is there anybody over here who has tried using cannabis to reduce back pain? Was it effective? Is there any chance for getting addicted to cannabis after treatment? Please share your experiences.
