Guest guest Posted January 5, 2004 Report Share Posted January 5, 2004 Mike gave me a tube of this. It did work better than any of the other millions of creams or lotions I've tried. I did get pretty cold though. Since I'm cold all the time, I got really cold. But only for about an hour. It worked pretty good on my lower back. I've found if I use it before the pain gets too bad, it works best. Now, I just need to know where I can buy it! Re: Anyone try Pennsaid (diclofenac topical cream) Have you ever tried Biofreeze? It comes in either a gel or roll-on. I have never seen it in a retail store. I have always gotten mine either thru a chiropractor's office or through a massage/bodywork supply store. I have been using it for years (got started on it several years ago by a chiropractor when my back was doing one of its periodic " let's make you walk funny " routines.) This is what most chiros, osteos, PT's, OT's, LMP's/LMT's use. I have used it on my wrists, elbows, shoulders, knees and low back. Like the name implies, it is a " cold " treatment. It is by far stronger and more effective than any over the counter topical cream or gel I have ever tried. And I think I have tried them all at one time or another. The only " side effect " I have ever had with it was from failing to thoroughly wash my hands after applying it and then inadvertantly rubbing my eye. You don't want to do that.

Guest guest Posted January 5, 2004 Report Share Posted January 5, 2004 do a search on Biofreeze on the net and you should find some dealers.
