Before I knew I had PMR, I had sore muscles and I bought some topical creams that gave very slight relief, and not enough to keep doing it. Now my PMR is at a pretty serious stage and I am on day 7 of the Wahls Paleo Diet, and I came across these topical creams. I tried one on my upper arm and it gave me some fairly quick, but temporary relief. But I didn't want to continue it before I asked if it would interfere with non toxin goals. One of the creams is called arnicare gel, with active ingredient of Arnica Montana and, of course, some inactive ingredients( alcohol, carbomer, purified water, sodium hydroxide). The other cream is more well-known, Bengay, I wonder if anybody has an opinion on these two products and and whether they are wise to use during the Wahls Protocol.
