Arthritis Hot psin relief creme

[cohibasurfer]

Just wondering if anyone uses it?

I'll leave this one up to the older CP's.

Tried it, didn't work for me.

Dang it Bill ... reason being is I have some extra! I mean EXTRA! Trying to find someone who might get some use out of it.

I use it occasionally, but not enough to use up this supply!


Hey Kayakin... BOy! You'll grow up someday

None of those cremes work for me, but they do work for a lot of folks.

Wish I could help you out Michael.

All of those creams only penetrate through the top layers of skin. They feel warm to the skin, but do little to affect the pain IMHO.

One of the creams, capzasin, is nothing but the chemical in chili peppers that make them hot.

A heating pad is the way to actually heat up the muscle, tendon, cartledge etc.

Just a note from experience, if you use creams that make the skin hot, avoid going into the hot tub... boy, I made that mistake.

Makes since Maggs. I use IcyHot after running three to five miles on the treadmill in the evenings. I think the feeling of "it's working" is more of a psychosomatic affect if anything else now. In the mean time, I'll just continue to use ice bags and heating pads to get the better effect. I don't have arthritis myself, just a bad back and a neck that has a pain in it, and no, it's not my wife.

You also want to wash your hands extra good before taking a leak

I'd be happy to spray anyone that has aches and pains with my pepper spray. :thumbs: It's made from the same thing as the creme. Who wants to go first?
