Absorbine Jr.

Post by Kami's mom »

Just curious if anyone has tried Absorbine Jr. My 14-year-old daughter has been using this on her legs for about 7 years and she said it helps the pain. (It doesn't make the pain go entirely away, but does minimize it.)

I tried it for a while and found the same thing as your daughter, though in my case I found myself having to constantly increase the application, and I realized I was eventually effectively burning my skin. That may not be the case for everyone, though, as I generally have a high tolerance for and adaptation to medication and substances of all kinds.
