Guest guest Posted April 26, 2008 Report Share Posted April 26, 2008 my friend has rheumatoid arthritis,her hands are quite swollen,red,painful ... she waits on tables ...does anyone know what she [ age 72 ] can do for it 4 it...no insurance ... non-dr/prescription help please ############ I use DMSO for arthritis pain, works wonderful for me. Most vets have it, most farm and feed stores carry it. If you are lucky enough to live in a state that allows you can find it in herb or health food stores. Buy 99% pure. Which means that 1% is water. Mix with aloe vera gel and apply. Start with a 50% solution as it causes a histamine reaction. Once used to it you can build up to 70% strength. Dr. Stanley Jacobs of OHSU in Portland sells online to people who want to use the pharmacy grade, his is 70% strength when you get it. A bit more expensive but very safe. Here is the link to that webpage: http://www.jacoblab.com/ DMSO is cheap and very effective for arthritis. I have used it for years.

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 I've used DMSO and I think it really helped end some persistant back pain. However I did experience some cloudiness with vision and tightness in the scalp over time. I used an eyewash made from eyebrite and cayenne capsule in water. Just one drop (yes it stings a little) And "Hairever 1 Cleansing Scalp Treatment". - Micki Saturday, April 26, 2008 2:19 PM rheumatoid arthritis/hands - Use DMSO my friend has rheumatoid arthritis,her hands are quite swollen,red,painful ... she waits on tables ...does anyone know what she [ age 72 ] can do for it 4 it...no insurance ... non-dr/prescription help please ############ I use DMSO for arthritis pain, works wonderful for me.
