should work for most folks [SEP] i bought this for my husband primarily after getting a recommendation from a friend about dmso i like that it is rose scented so many of these smell hideous or medicated i think it is good for general pain but it did not work as well as others for my husbands issues he does have extreme neuropathy and lower back pain from the removal of a tumor so his issues are a little out of the norm but our friend and his in laws have both found great relief with this product
