Hi, having real bad time at the moment. Has anyone been able to find a good muscle rub to ease muscle,tendon,ligament pain. Pain killers just not even touching the sides at the moment.

Hi I have fibro and arthritis, I use both the heat lotion and the msm gel from forever living products, and find them both to be very effective, I also know of others with painful joint/muscle conditiions who also use it to great effect.

Thank you.

The best thing I have tried and tried everything over 20 years is called Traxam Foam ( names as Felbinac Foam on prescription) it is available as gel or cream too but never found it as effective. You can buy from online chemists but I get on prescription, the foam virtually melts into ur skin so is much better than rubbing stuff in when muscles and tendons are very painful and sore. It's not stocked always at chemist so did try the gel when last time was in so much pain but didn't get half the relief than I do from foam

Hope you can get hold if some and it helps you,
