Comment:
I've been using Voltaren for a week for ankle pain due do car accident, it seems to give a fast relief, and it is ease to use. I wonder if I can use for lower back pain too?
Does anybody can give an advice on that?
I am a little bit scared though about the side effects, I haven't had any yet, I tried Celebrex before but my stomach could not take it for more than 2 days.

Unable to take oral NACIDS b/c of past cancer. Voltaran has helped me with both knees--one replacement and one genuine equipment. Also helped ankle in recovering from torn achilles with swelling and pain from exercising. Don't know what I've had without it!

Comment:
I have osteo-arthritis, degenerative disk disease and pain in my feet and legs from diabetes. This gel has been a wonder drug for me. I use it as needed and I have the 1% formula. It is easy to apply and goes to work quickly.
