Using (Rx) for both arthritis/joint damage and Peripheral Neuropathy. It works very well for me, both after things get painful, and as a preventative. It helps me avoid Ophiods, and is more effective, in my experience. Use exam gloves to apply, bought by the box-of-100 from auto parts stores. Use on foot and knee, usually not more than twice a day, although the literature says up to 4 times a da...

Husband used (Rx) after breaking ribs but it made him very nauseated so he stopped after first use. I have used for osteoarthritis of the hands and knees (OTC) with very good results. I use most often on my thumbs and I use "as needed" which is generally several days or more 2 to 4 times a day. My Rheumatologist prescribed celebrex twice daily and suggested this as an added treatment on my hands for those really bad days. (He knew used it on painful crepitus knees.)

I've had pain in my left knee for many years. I always wear a brace. I went to my doctor to ask for a shot for my knee. She prescribed this instead. I use it once or twice a day. My knee pain is much much better.

The pain in my feet was unbearable. I tried everything. When my doctor recommended a topical cream I laughed. I am absolutely amazed at the effectiveness of this cream. I had a consult for a pain shot which I recently cancelled. Amazing!

It is a wonder gel! I have been on it for2-3 months for my hip and it really works . I just put it on in the morning that's when I'm really hurting and it usually last most the day unless I'm very active which is not often. It is better than opioets as I was on them for 20 some years and they got to where they wouldn't work. This stuff is amazing!

I did not want to use opioids for my arthritis, and this actually works 90% of the time. Highly recommend.

I began having severe pain in my right knee. I began feeling relief the next day after applying this Gel. It's a bit sloppy to apply but the results are worth the effort.

When arthritis flares up in the knee with pain, this gel relieved me of all pain within 5 minutes. Husband uses on shoulders, back, legs. and knees with great relief.
