Can you imagine rubbing the cream in? :Yikes:

Good news for further research though. Capsaicin is already used in pain relief.

just don't rub your eyes after applying, eh ;)

Interesting, I read the article, earlier, but didn't know about the pain relief - lots to google, methinks - thanks Salu :tu:

Postherpetic neuralgia mostly fyi Gaz...although I've seen it used for topical arthritis pain relief.

Thanks - article I just read also mentioned psoriasis & post mastectomy, as well as shingles - blocks the action of 'substance P' & hence stops the nerve transmission, .... apparently :dozey:
