"For over 15 years I've had mid foot pain. First symptom was pain & stiffness when I got up from a sitting position. Slowly through the years, the osteoarthritis became debilitating and interfered with my life. Prescription Celebrex, prescription ointment, and expensive sneakers did little to help (I recently stopped my Celebrex due to bloating and stomach issues). At work, I am on my feet often and by lunch, my feet were in unbelievable pain...crippling pain with a lot of inflammation. Four days ago, I was going through my old medicine supplies and came across Aspercreme. I ended up using the cream with my prescription ointment....and the very first day I came home without major pain & absolutely no inflammation. I have been using it morning and night... so far my feet feel 70 percent better (seems to have helped dramatically with inflammation.. I am thrilled & absolutely amazed by this). I will be buying more of this product & will be sure to have a few backup tubes on hand."
