I use Feldene Gel on my lumbar spine when discs act up. each gram contains 5mg piroxicam, which is an anti-inflammatory, and then I lay on my heating pad. I also may take 2 voltaren. I have alot of back problems too,and varying degrees of pain.

The gel is good, but these sports gels have been getting quite dear lately. $13 for a smalll $50mg tube.
