‘Pain sucks_______’ Yep.
Consider liquid DMSO.
Sold in health food stores as a solvent.
It is not sold as pain medicine.
You will see other sorts of DMSO products, but get the strong liquid.
VETS used it, maybe still do.
A family member told a fireman about it years ago, and that fireman has others using it when applicable.
He also used it for relief from surgical pain, when painkillers weren’t helping 100 percent.
Just applied it to the surgical area.
Seems one should wet a wad of cotton, and then pour on some DMSO.
The downside is an odor from the mouth - proves the DMSO is penetrating and ‘circulating!’
A few years ago when I went to my polling place to vote, I smelled the distinctive odor, and said quietly to a woman I pinpointed as the ‘culprit,’ that I knew she was using DMSO!
She confessed, saying she had a skiing injury! She looked to be in her early 60’s.
Pretty sure DMSO won’t cure the disc problem, tho. . . !
But it addresses pain, as well as having healing properties.
I urge you to read up on DMSO.
After purchasing some, to get it going!
Thanks for the advice — I will check into DMSO...
