I managed to get a case of tennis elbow, probably from cleaning and moving stuff at dad's house. At my recent rheumatologist appointment, I asked about Voltaren gel, and she gave me a sample to try. Wow - it really helps quite a bit! Much better than having to take naproxen two or three times a day for one small (but VERY) painful area. And I love the smell of it too. She gave me a script for it, and I'm going to go get it filled tomorrow as I'm almost out of the sample.
Jas, it works great. I use it on my knee and hip, especially at night. It keeps from having to take a pain pill. Hope your elbow feels better soon. LindyI used it this morning on a sore calf muscle. JR- how do you know when your pain is RA or tennis elbow?
