I just got back from visiting a friend who has a hot tub. I tend to turn it up to about 102. It helped the pain sooooo much! I would give anything to have one.

I got in one morning and the leg/foot pain was so intense I could hardly walk and wouldn't have tried to if I hadn't wanted to get in the tub so bad.
Afterwards that pain was all but gone for the rest of the day. I found to help every day. Helps circulation perhaps?

The only scary thing was that I was bladder incontinent afterwards. I could not feel the need to pee. It would last about 20 minutes, then subside. That was worrisome!
But I take pain meds and it probably numbs the nerves that alert the body for the need to go. Not sure though. Just my hope!
