A previous Doctor wanted to go straight to cortisone shots for my elbow so I found a new doc. Lol.
      PA? Physician Assistant? Is the Oltaren Gel over the counter?

      PA was a typo, I use and iPod touch and have fat thumbs lol.
      I meant to put PP - personal physician.
      Voltaren gel is a prescription, it's a topical non steroid anti inflammatory but is also available in pill form but I've tried the oral version as well as meloxicam, the topical voltaren far exceeds ALL the oral nsad drugs I've been prescribed. Results are noticed from very first application or two, and I only have to use it 4 or 5 days to completely heel most minor tendinitis and strains/sprains. I've given some to several friends afflicted by major soft tissue injuries, one with a massively sprained ankle, black and blue swollen to max and by 5th day it was gone. Same with a guy who strained his left pec. Entire left pec was black n blue he was benching within a week of use.
      Without insurance it's about 70$ but with my insurance I pay 15 for a 100ml tube, 1ml dose used at a time, am and pm treatment. I'd be stuck on OxyContin indefinitely from chronic tendinitis in elbow, both knees, and a 5th lumbar that likes to turn clockwise 15 degrees for fun lol. Hope it helps if your in need of relief from pain.
      Never give up!

      Cool. Next time I see my physician I will ask about it. I have some type of gel that a bone and joint doc gave me and it sounds similar to that. I use it on areas that I have some inflammation like my shoulder and lower back. Works pretty good but I will see if I can get some of that. Thanks bud.

      Yeah I totally agreed. This go around I am not squatting or deadlifting or any other lower body lift until I get this crap healed up completely. I am too young to wake up in the morning in chronic pain and I am missing out on activities I love and my mood is affected by the pain which causes those around me to suffer. Shit is going to get fixed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
