I have a bad knee due to repetitive kneeling on hard surfaces while i had my own cleaning service for 7 years. It started to get really bad over the last few months. I use a rub in the morning and at nite and take arthritis strength Tylenol or Advil.
I was looking for something stronger to apply to my knee, so i bought Capzasin. I liked it because i didn't have to get my hands in it as it is a roll on.
I tried it for the first time last nite about 7 ish. Well.......my freakin knee is still burning!!! I followed directions by washing the area, drying well and rubbing in this lotion, i did not wrap it according to package directions.
I didn't feel any different until about 20 minutes after, then all of a sudden my knee felt like it had a horrible sunburn. I washed it with cool water and baby soap but the heat is still there. Tho it is somewhat going away, when i touch the knee or rub it, it actually hurts to touch, like i burned it. It was very fire red last nite, but this morning it's pinkish.
Maybe it just reacted badly to me, but i just wanted to let you guys know.
