Getting help for pain with a chiropractor will give you a different treatment than your medical doctor.
Instead of medications your chiropractor may prescribe home exercises (with chiropractic care) for relief and full recovery to your normal health.
To get better balance start with 2 things: improving posture and better joint motion. This is another post, and both get your joints to stay relaxed to shift your center of gravity easier when you move.
Then this exercise will help you keep improving your balance and strength:
-
Stand up straight.
2. Touch the wall with 2 fingers, and walk with your head up. 
3. Turn around then perform step 2 with eyes closed. 
4. Repeat step 2 with eyes open heel-to-toe. Bonus: with your eyes closed.
