"I have bursitis in both hips that developed prior to back surgery. The pain is bearable during the day, but at night, I wake up with pain because I'm a side sleeper. I started using Salonpas gel and I have been able to sleep through the night without waking. I get cortisone injections when needed, but when I can't get an appointment quick enough, this is fantastic! And for roughly $8.00 at Walmart, you can't beat it!"

"I used the gel for the first time today on my neck and left shoulder. Felt instant relief! Only thing I'm not fond of is the overwhelming scent."

"I have tried all types of pain relief. Finally, I found Salonpas gel on the shelf at Walgreens. I'm a nurse, and the long hours are taking a toll on my back and hips. I must say it works wonders. It's worth the odor, which goes away after a while. I have shared the Salonpas gel with 5 of my friends and co-workers. They all love it. Unfortunately, the price has increased since I started using it. Anyway, can I get coupons? Greatly recommended. Even better than steroid injections and pain pills."
