i have 2 different types of high-CBD gel with heat. they do help, but do not last as long as i need. still, any port in a storm...i'll look into the t-relief, thanks!
I distrust a LOT of what modern Big Pharma has to offer, and by modern, I'm including about the last 60-70 years, as my own Physicians' Desk Reference is later 1980s, and it's frightening enough to peruse..
That said, someone turned me onto an NSAID ointment, topical, smells like a Love Canal chemical accident, and is used in very small amounts.
It's called Voltaren, or spelled close to that.
It can be had in lower concentration at the stores in many places, over the counter. What I received is Rx strength, at 1% active concentration, so that says something either about the potency of the stuff, and/or the need to dilute to cover a given area.
My friend who helped me into it ignores the dosage card in the kit, uses far less (about a 'pea size' rather than a line on the included card of about 1-2 inches in length), and briskly rubs it onto/into the pained area, rubbing quickly until he feels the the moisture of the stuff has gone away sufficiently that the brisk rubbing is creating a noted increase to friction, then he leaves it, and MAKES SURE TO WASH his hands after; I used 6-mil mechanics' nitrile gloves when I used it.
I can say that for me, with pained shoulders and neck this last summer/fall, when we were doing concrete slabs and the new septic system, I succumbed to the Voltaren rather than taking a pain pill, and it seemed to work fairly well. but again, if olfactory reaction means anything, this stuff is definitely a smell that gets your attention. My wife was unable to use it on her finger joints after quilting, etc., as the smell was too much for her.

My goal of 2021 would be to organize everything in my life to the better. That means everything needs re-planning and cleaning. I need to get rid of some stress that messes up my systems. Im tired of half ass solutions. I want the whole ass
Without realizing it I quited tobacco, again, Im an on/off tobacco smoker.
Moose, I started to use Voltaren gel on my tendon late last fall. Stopped very quickly after reading some articles about it. It makes the blood to a lesser extent able to coagulate. One man got so low of a value of the stuff that makes it coagulates and ended up hospital because of some other blue marks on his body. Doctors said if he would have cut himself in this state, he very likely could have died.
So yes, I dont use it:/

To watch, if Amazon tries to buy Newegg.
A true clash of the etailer Titans. Even though Amazon is 1000 times bigger.

Just bought 30 fruit trees.
Want to plant them without the Assessor raising my property taxes.
Will probably plant 15 in the open and "stealth" 15 of them.
Still learning about Pollinators.
You would think 30 trees would take up more space.
Oh yeah, it's 32, bought 2 more apricot.

Similar.. trying to kick the seed buying habit.. I have more than I could ever pop and grow (indoors).. One day when Florida allows growing, I'll go outdoors and run a bunch.. until then I'd like to find a grow buddie to give them to..
