Guest guest Posted June 19, 2011 Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 Try DMSO gel as a topical pain reliver. I used it for pressure sores but now I use emu oil if I have them. Both helped but the emu oil is skin softening and the DMSO is drying. The location and reason for the pain makes a difference as to which would work best. > > > I have had excruciating pain from my hip are (just below the buttocks), down the outside of my leg to the knee for about 6 weeks. The last weeks or so, the pain has radiated down to the calf and sides and front of my lower leg. This morning I woke with it throbbing so bad, I couldn't go to church. I WAS taking Neurontin but had to stop because it due to water weight gain and bad tremors. I am taking Tylenol #4 and Baclofen for it, but it barely takes the edge off. It was SO bad a few nights that I couldn't lay still for the pounding, throbbing pain and had to go to ER. NO ONE knows what it is.... Have ANY Of you experienced something like this and what did you use to help, and did you find out what it was? > Thank you SO much. > sign me... > in horrid pain in Ohio > () > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
