Maxime, sometimes to joints, but mostly hands, fingers, thumb, feet, back of calves and along lower spine. Little amounts break the snowballing effect of pain. I think my pain is more fibro-like.
But heck, it's marketed for joints and osteoarthritis. No generic yet.
Every little bit helps, especially with reducing pain. Being able to rub a small amount of gel on the exact spot--not medicating my entire body--and getting temporary relief is a small miracle.
Have you tried otc topicals like aspercreme? (Since you mentioned mild responce to tylenol.)
C-PTSD currently set to twitch. MDD and comorbid health issues. Chronic fatigue and pain.
