Experiences with

Voltarol

Just a bit about me I’m 68 and have had osteoarthritis in both Knees diagnosed about 15 years ago. I’ve had numerous injections in both knees which helps for short periods. I can’t take anti-inflammatory drugs d/t Barrets esophagus and reflux problems. On here to learn how to achieve some pain control

I have been using Voltarol and solpadine max ( highest otc codine) but to no avail. Last week I saw my GP who told me it could be bursitis, but today at cardio rehab one of the nurses said it could be my statins?

Well last night I suffered with spinal pain and shakes as my spine hurt so bad. My arms and legs were on fire! They hurt and throbbed and it felt like my skin was on fire! I rubbed my muscles with Voltaren extra strength cream and it helped a little. I took breakthrough meds and fell asleep which was

Any feedback on use of oral Voltaire’s to deal with pain and rigidity?

I can’t use anti inflammatory creams such as deep heat or voltarol cream as I react to it so was wondering if this stuff might help with lupus joint pain as well as osteoarthritis. Has anyone tried it and if so did it help at all? Many thanks

I haven't run since doing it and rest as much as possible and voltarol cream and ibuprofen. I have a 10k run in less than 2 weeks and want to get out running but anxious. Any idea's ? I might book into docs or physio

I foolishly used the Voltarol gel on my Achilles Tendonitis and bingo! day later I have a return (I hadn't had it in 4 years) of my Urticaria on my ankles. Only something was wrong with it - it just kept getting worse and worse and spreading up my legs.

I started out with the usual like tramadol, Hydrocodone, etc. Finally I told the Doctor I wanted Oxycodone and he gave it to me. Almost instantly pain gone. My oxycodone had no aspirin in it due to possible liver damage. I started out with 14 5mg per day, now since the scare on opioids, I am down

Putting voltarol on at the moment and painkillers but it's not really easing it much. Any advice would be helpful and ideas as to what it might be

I soaked it in Epsom salts, rubbed Voltarol in, and later Arnica ointment too. I elevated it and I still could not put any weight on it at all before bedtime. I was struggling to walk with a stick even!! My Pilates coach said “have you tried the relaxing foot massage we do ?”

Can anyone recommend any muscle treatments (voltarol etc?) that might work, I just tried ibruprofen and herbal sleeping tablets but can't say they worked.

Over the next half hour I just about managed to crawl upstairs, fetch the Epsom salts and Voltarol, find the blackberrying walking stick, run a bowl of water and hobble back in with it and soak my foot. I could barely move it to rub it dry and my ankle has swollen up now too.

I’m 21 years old and been diagnosed with gallstones - I was having regular mild attacks (weekly) and then I have had two admissions to hospital with severe attacks where the only thing that helped was a concoction of Oramorph, tramadol and voltarol.

Ok I needed a knee support and voltarol after! but feel like I can build and push on again now. Lesson learnt, very slow and steady with the hope speed will come back.

But I can,t emphasise enough how painful this is, the only relief I can find is rubbing in Voltarol gel, doing this is painful too, but worth it for the affect it has, this is a new thing the Voltarol, but I use it for Osteoarthritis.

I've bought a massive tube of voltarol and am applying it on feet, toes, ankles, knees, thighs, hips, fingers, wrists and elbows.

Good evening/night, I have been in lots of pain for a week or more, my fingers and my toes have been hurting all week, my gp gave me some Voltarol , which seems to help, I was given some compression gloves too and then get some of them socks or chop the beggars off lol, I mean my feet by the way.

I am having pain during ovulation that pain comes and go I had to take voltarol suppository for it . I did had laparoscopy in 2016 with no endometriosis My question is can it be endometriosis ?? Is it possible it can happen after a negative result

Thank goodness for Voltarol, this is the only symptom I get with this. But what a mystery, one I could do without. This is just on the surface of the skin.
