Try the SAMe every other day. Spacing it out sometimes reduces side effects if they are present.

Yes, try the epsom salts...it will relieve any muscle/tendon
contractions.

The original Salonpas in the little envelopes can be cut into strips.
I've used them that way many times...mostly on my big toes.
Keep them in a ziploc baggie after opening, to keep fresh.

read the labels carefully to make sure the methyl salicyclate is in them.

You don't have to put right on the joint, but right next to it on either side. It will diffuse to the joint area too.
