Just wondering if either of these medications can cause problems from taking regularly.

You should have no problems if you follow the directions of your doctor, and inform him of any side effects you may experience.

I heard that tramadol can be addictive so was concerned. Thanks

Yes it can be, but no doubt your doctor will keep a close watch on your dosage, and when it's time will know how to safely wean you off it. It's important you follow his directions, and communicate your concerns to him, so he will know how to best manage your care and treatment.
