In my never ending quest for topical creams I may have found another that works for me. Supposedly patented for neurological pain issues I was skeptical but I tried it and it is helpful. I often mix it with biofreeze but it seems to work alone also. So I'm just throwing it out there.

Thanks! I just looked it up and it lists carpal tunnel which I do have. It's always good to have different topicals on hand, pun intended

I love Topricin and I've talked about it here. Have been using it for a couple yrs....11 homeopathic remedies each directed for specific type pains. Glad you found it and it's helping....tons of reviews on it out there....

Thanks for another tool in my toolbox. I love to read things that show promise for my pain.

I am aware of several people using, and liking, Topricin cream.

It has not worked well enough for me; yet, I honor the experiences of others, as to what works for them.

Topricin does help some people.

I just tried it last night with very good results. I now have 3 different ones to rotate. I find that none work well if I continue to use it every night so rotating after a few nights works the best for me.

Right now I rotate Aspercreme with Lidocaine, Morton's Epsom Lotion and now Topricin. I tried Biofreeze but it is too strong for me. Any other suggestions I can add to my rotation?

I rotate so many topicals and like Ultra Tiger Balm too. I use Vicks and Menthlatim and a chinese oil and I use DMSO as I belong to a DMSO group. Topricin worked so well for me early on and whether knee is just getting worse, OA doesn't reverse, it's not as effective, but I still buy and use it. These keep me going as I don't want knee surgery....

I even mix a concoction of my own with a Vit E base or Aloe Vera base, chop up aspirin, add drops of DMSO, mix it up and brush it on my shoulders and lower back.

I could have written this post.

I even dissolve Tylenol 3 tabs I can't take internally..got the script but constipation was horrid...so I have some tabs left and dissolve some in distilled water and add them to my concoction sometimes. I believe this drug has codine in it. Glad others have a chemistry lab going, not just me.

Same here. I find that if you mix biofreeze with another cream like Topricin it's not too strong. The only way I use it straight is on my back in a very fine spray that it also comes in.
