Methyl salicylate topical "I used Absorbine Jr. cream for arthritis pain relief because I am a motorcyclist that loves to ride. I love riding more than anything, and I want to continue to ride until I'm 60. But when my arthritis acts up, my joints hurt and stiffen, and it makes it very painful to ride. A couple of times, I had to pull over and have someone pick me up because I could barely start on the bike. Absorbine Jr. gives me arthritis pain relief quickly and allows me to get home without having to call someone to pick me up. While this is not a permanent solution and I will have to give up riding eventually, this product gives me more time to really enjoy what I love to do. I will use Absorbine Jr. until I can't ride anymore, and it gives me a lot of joy too."

Methyl salicylate topical "New adhesive in Salonpas doesn’t stick well, so I found generic patches at the Dollar Tree - 20 patches in a pack for $1.00. They use the old type of adhesive that sticks until you remove it and works great! Really helped my arthritic knees and ankle."

Methyl salicylate topical "I’ve used these patches successfully for various conditions over the years. Contrary to some reviews, I’ve found that they stick very well on skin. They need to be applied flat. They might not adhere as well on skin that is oily, or that has folds. Make sure skin is dry and oil-free. They stick better, are less expensive, and offer more relief than the major competitor’s brand of larger patches, hands down."

Methyl salicylate topical "I was having knee pain, so I bought the cream and a patch. I rubbed the cream, and the following day, my knee and the back of my thigh were inflamed and swollen with blisters, and I felt like I had a fever. The swelling was so bad I could not bend my knee. It took one month to get rid of the side effects. Consult your doctor. This over-the-counter cream is dangerous."

Methyl salicylate topical "These saved Salonpas patches for me. They are strong enough to help my pain! I have arthritis all over. I don’t use them for my eyes, but I have arthritis in my eyes. You guys saved me. They stay stuck for 24 hours. Thank you, for my life is better because of Salonpas!!!"

Methyl salicylate topical "Stuck on Salonpas on my strained ankle, and within a few hours, had a patch of red rashes with blisters. One week later, the whole patch became scaly and thick with countless blisters that broke and crusted. This is some dangerous medicated plaster. I never had an allergy that bad!"

"The amount of pain creams I have tried for my arthritis is honestly crazy, but the one I have stuck with for the last 7 months is Absorbine Jr. The cream moisturizes while it's relieving the pain, so my skin still feels healthy after using it. Some other creams I used dried out my skin and irritated it. This just feels like I'm moisturizing while also gaining pain relief to go about my daily life as usual. Honestly, a life saver."

Methyl salicylate topical "I've been using Solanpas for so many years, like I tell a few of my co-workers, and they have been used. For me, Solanpas works for more than what they say, if I'm stressed, I have it in my shoulders, and that works so well. Now I have knee pain, and it works. I only wish the price wouldn't go too high. I tell everyone it works. I did use the spray and the patch, it may not work as well for everyone. But it works for me and for everyone that I say Solanpas works."

"Equate pain-relieving cream helps with arthritis pain. Unlike the patches, I can rub it in where the pain is. My hands do not allow me to use those patches, so those of you having problems may try the creams, as I have tried everything out there and find this is one product that helps."

Methyl salicylate topical "I bought these patches for my knee, and they work great! I have a small knee, so they were able to stay on, but if your knee is larger than the average knee, it won’t stay on!"
