Have you used the alpha lypolic. acid and if so did it help.

Ben Gay might be trouble to some in the same way some cannot use topical pepper extracts(Circumin?). Yes I use ALA and I cannot tell you if it helped. I can tell you it didn't hurt. I stopped taking the B1 because that is one nasty, stinking pill. I would get it a couple of inches from my nose and the smell told me I was fixin to swallow the whole pharmacy. I haven't tried the new Aspercreme with lidocain but for deeper than topical relief it sounds promising. Other people flare on nightshade veggies, carb overloads that turn to glucose in the blood. If you use the search function here for flares and read the things that go on. I apologise if you have used Ben Gay in the past with success but I know that some would think that would be taboo. Good Luck, Ken in Texas. P.S. Correction, the pepper extracts include Capsaicin not Circumin.
