"I was told to use Aspercreme Heat for my shoulder pain. Within 30 minutes of putting it on, my skin started burning, turning red, and itching. I tried to remove it, but it had soaked into my skin. I've taken 50 mg of Benadryl and washed the area that I put the Aspercreme on 3 times, but the itching and burning have continued. I would not suggest this product to anyone!!!"

"I used it for 15 years on knees, ankles, shoulders, back, calves, thighs, and found it worked better on my knees if I used a tight knee support. Wonderful product. Can't find it anywhere. Had to use Bengay extra strength."

"I applied Aspercreme on my knee, and 20 minutes later, my knee was red, itchy, and I felt like the skin was peeling off. Horrible experience. I cleaned the area I applied the cream on three times, and the burning continued. I have never experienced this with a product, and I'm not allergic to anything at age 30. I think this product needs to be recalled. I had knee pain, now I have a burning pain."

"I used Aspercreme pain relieving heat gel, and within one hour, I was burnt to a crisp. I washed it off 3 times, but I still was burning. My wife got a wet cloth and two ice packs, and I was finally able to get some relief. I would not advise anyone to use this product!!!"
