I tried this as a last gasp in a long line of products to control knee pain. I'm pleased to say that initial indications are that this works great. However, since it's not stated in the items description, it should be noted that one of the "tri-flora" items is poison ivy. Yes, that's correct - poison ivy! Not an issue for me as I have never had any sensitivity to that plant, but for someone who may be hypersensitive, you may want to look elsewhere rather than take the chance. There is a warning on the packaging.

A good remedy for hard tissue injuries not caused by sudden trauma. The pain relief tends to be subtle, after awhile, you'll notice that the pain is gone, and your mobility is much better. I would note that creams/patches with high levels of menthol or strong odors tend to antidote homeopathic remedies, so its not a good idea to mix and match.

In my search for a topical pain reliever, I've found that most of the typical drugstore items either smell, burn, are messy, and just plain don't work! I happened upon this item in an organic food store, read the package carefully, and gave it a try. True to the insert, noticeable pain relief takes about a week, but it is definitely NOTICEABLE! My arthritic knee, combined with Synvisc injections twice a year, is now functioning - not back to where it was when I was 50, but using Triflora as an adjunct to the injections and a once-a-day anti-inflammatory is a far cry from taking medicine 3-4 times a day and walking with a cane. Miracle drug? No. It probably will not work for everyone. But in my case, when used in combination with my regular medical care, I've managed to avoid knee replacement surgery for easily another year!!!! It's worth a try, and I'm glad I gave it a chance.
