Has anyone tried Pernaton Gel for stiffness?

I recently heard of this UK product and since my husband seems to be increasing his stiffness, I am curious if anyone with PSP has tried it. I gather it is an OTC gel to treat connective tissue pain. Any thoughts?

Thank you.

I had recommended this a while ago it is marvellous for any pain . My husband knees are very bad and stiff . Unfortunately for us the cream does affect his skin . I think it here is something in the heat and I had to stop using it . Other than that it was a huge help . Please don't let that put anyone els off because I have to very careful what I use on his skin it doesn't take very much for it to flare up .

Thank you for the hint! A little goes a long way, I gather. I wonder why it is not available in the US.

Wow. How quickly time flies. I see I wrote the message four years ago. Thank you for responding. Good news, what ever stiffness he had at the time resolved itself. He has no stiffness now. The bad news is that he can't use Voltaren being allergic to NSAIDS.
