Ora/helle/Reflex Sympathetic dystrophy or Regional Complex Pain Syndrome (?) - nne

[Guest guest]

Thanks for the information Ora – it is good information to have

to file away. It is interesting how the emu helps you. It really is good for a

lot of things. And I agree with you about the compression stockings – they would

drive me nuts too!

I have had it in my right leg for years and get a lot of relief by using Blue

Emu (a muscle rub which contains emu oil). It comes back from time to time and

I use the stuff and it really helps. I first got it when my Baker's cyst

ruptured and caused my leg to become very swollen for a few months. It got

worse when I had arthroscopic surgery on my knee (same leg) but I did physical

therapy for several weeks and it did not get too bad. The Blue Emu helps

tremendously.

My son had it and he swears by compression stockings to alleviate the pain but

I

think wearing those things would drive me up the wall.
