how good does it work for knee pain caused by cartilage damage?
1290544
It would depend on the severity of damaged cartilage. My husband and I use it and it works really well. I have knee pain on the left side and I used it daily for a time and now do not have to use it daily. My husband uses it on several of his joints and it works. It is very good for inflammation of the joints but not a cure all. If you are unsure I would suggest that you ask a medical person. We like and are still using it.

I have been using Blue Emu for many years - it is amazing. I have recently started having arthritis pain and began taking NSAIDS and within a short time began hemorrhaging from stomach ulcers which I didn't even know I had. Back to the Blue Emu which is really working quite well - I don't know why I decided to use the NSAIDs. I just need to remember to use it every 6 to 8 hours, before I start hurting again.

It works for any joint or muscle type pain. However, we are not talking the strength of aspirin or stronger meds. In my case I can not take aspirin or anything but Tylenol type pain pills. The cream adds to that and eases aggravating aches and pains. Ir does take a a bit of time. I put it on and some 10 minutes later realize, " Oh, it doesn't bother me as much as it did." And I can then do some activities with my hands that would have been difficult earlier. One of the best advantages is that you can reapply several times a day, unlike pain pills where you have to wait 4 to 6 hours. Hope this helps you. It works for any joint or muscle type pain.

My husband uses it on his hands and feet with good results so it should help your knees. You only use a small amount and rub it in. The bottle lasts a long time. It is worth giving it a try. Good luck.

I do not have an answer for that question. Believe it could be googled for an answer. I can offer the opinion that this product, with sulfate ingredients, is working well for me by reducing swellinng and pain in the knee joint.

I'm 80, and wear it every day. The age of the wearer shouldn't make any difference. It's the need of the user. The Kneedit has provided me lots of help. for a torn ACL and lack of cartilage in my knee.

My experience I used for support from a torn ligament to avoid my knee from slipping in and out of place. If you're using for support you will benefit with my experience with muscle and cartilage the body has to repair itself! Hope this helps!

I like the B-Cure. It's expensive but it works on both my knees and right hip.

I use it for pain relief for various joints with osteoarthritis, none with joint replacements, and it works well for me. PLEASE ask your physician if it is safe and appropriate for you to use - he/she will know what it is and is the ONLY person who can give you the correct advice for your personal situation. DON'T DO ANYTHING THAT MIGHT COMPROMISE YOUR NEW KNEE!!!

I take it for my knee problem--that I have since I was 16. Without it, it is painful to exercise or climb steps. I notice no change whatsoever in my back and neck pain, though. I actually had no idea it was indicated for that too...

Yes, I tried it for my dog and really helped her recover the movement in her hind legs. It does not eliminate the pain but she was much more functional after being laying in the bed all day, so I was really happy. I really recommend it.

I have an ACL tear with meniscus injury post recon, but my knee still buckles from time to time with certain activities. I bought this guard for my recent trekking trip to Nepal and my knee held up pretty well with it.. Up till the day of the descent of 4hrs, when the knee gave way. The swelling was minimal though and I recovered in abt 2days. Not too bad, so think the guard must have helped.

I am not sure if the wrap is a cure for a meniscus injury yet? I think I have a small meniscus injury and I can say this wrap has been incredibly helpful. I use it five times a day with ice. I can say that am really grateful for this wrap. I was in so much pain before I found it and now after using this wrap I have gotten rid of the pain and swelling. The reason I cannot say it can heal a meniscus tear is because I am still not sure if this type of injury and be healed without surgery. I am hoping so but I don't have enough information yet. Bottom line this is a fantastic tool for a joint injury or muscle pain.
