Voltarol gel whilst on warfarin

[Mikedabike]

Hell, just a quick question regarding the abive. I am wondering if there would be any problem using an NSAID gel in a small amount on my skin for an injury to my Achilles heel. I am aware of the health guidelines, and from what I have read, as I interpret it, using a small amount of gel in limited amounts on my heel tendon area should be okay. I was just wondering if anyone has any direct experience of using such creams or gels while on warfarin.

I can’t get to grips with this posting. The greeting above should actually say Hello, not Hell 🙄

Hi l'm on Warfarin, Doctor told me l could use any rub in gels etc but for no longer than three days at a time with a week off inbetween. Hope that helps, l have been using them for four years with no problem. Take care, Sue.
