Guest guest Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 There are also studies suggesting that Nsaids..(Ibuprofen, Naproxen Sodium) cause longer healing time... Don't know if they're true or not, but if you need something for pain you can use your MSM cream. Jennifer On Behalf Of Anita Reeves Tuesday, May 09, 2006 9:50 AM RE: Help for Tendon? Lavender.

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 I understand that Lemongrass is good. I've used it diluted with a carrier oil on a sore shoulder and on tendinitis in an elbow. I also like Basil (be sure to dilute; it is strong). Molly On May 9, 2006, at 6:55 AM, Anita Reeves wrote: > A week ago I severly twisted a finger.

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 Dear Anita, Have you treid DMSO (dimethylsuilfoxide)?.You can usually get it at a feed store or on line. I tis not supposed to be used for humans as the aspirin peope and various other companies know that it will replace their creams, but it is still legal to use it for animals and they DO sell roll ons at feed stores (presumably for the horses...he hee).........it is EXCELLENT for tendon, muscle, cartilage and bone repair..............herbally yours Penny On 5/9/06, Anita Reeves <anita-r wrote: > > A week ago I severly twisted a finger.

The lemongrass that is an effective pain reliever is high in Myrcene. Most GC's I've seen have less than 1%... you need 12 to 15% myrcene. trust me, it's hard to find. Some of our nurses wanted it, and it took me about three years to source it. You'd not believe how much I was promised had the myrcene level I needed. And upon testing... nada. frustrating experience.

Haven't even thought about taking an over the counter pain killer, as the arnica is doing that pretty well, and it really doesn't hurt...that is until the chiropractor(sp?) started fiddling with it..but that pain went away rather quickly. The swelilng has gone down too except right at the knuckle. I do put the MSM cream on at night though. Anita Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 Molly, thanks for this info as well...will keep it for my own files, as well as use it myself, diluted in a carrier of coarse. Anita Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
