Torn meniscus in my kneee from tennis was brought back to 100 percent in abouit 5 weeks. Nothing else topical gave any relief and did not want to go under the knife. Referred by an older than me fellow player. I thanked him a thosand times. I use it for shoulder and back pain on and off ever since and refer it to everyone I know!! It is a miracle solution for sure!!
