"I have arthritis in my right hand wrist, and Aspercreme does nothing for me. I put it on when I start having the pain, and it doesn't help. I try to put it on at night before I go to sleep 'cause that's when it hurts the most, and it doesn't relieve any pain and keeps me up all night long."

"Aspercreme is an excellent source of relief for me. I use it on my right hand, left shoulder, left hip, and left knee. I use it in only two areas at any one time, whichever areas have the worst discomfort. Aspercreme relieves swelling and joint pain and relaxes the joint, so I am much more comfortable. I apply about a dime size of cream and rub it over a small area where the discomfort is the most noticeable. Some days I do not use any Aspercreme. I have not experienced any problems. Regular aspirin has always been my go-to medication of choice. Aspercreme works best for me."

"I have moderate arthritis pain in my thumb joints. When I apply this medication, nothing happens. It's like putting on a moisturizer."

"Bought the latest Aspercreme with lidocaine, and it did not do anything more to relieve knee pain than the Aspercreme without lidocaine. The Australian cream works better than anything I have bought. The Salonpas patches are pretty good too. I would have called, but there is no phone number to call about the product, which I found frustrating. Can you suggest a way to contact the company?"
