Relieves my aching knees! Great alternative to taking pills…
I get terrible pain in my knees when the weather calls for rain as I suffer from arthritis. I am constantly taking over the counter medication to ease the aching but really want another alternative so I don’t rip up my stomach anymore. It only seemed logical to try a rub that is made for pain relief from arthritis and inflammation.<br /><br />The first thing I noticed upon opening the package was there was a label over the the lid and the tube. This I liked because I knew it had not been opened previously. When I opened it there was barely any scent which was a welcome surprise. Many of these rubs have an overwhelming odor, however this gel had barely a hint of scent.<br /><br />The product itself is a thick gel consistency and a little goes a long way. I squeezed it out and rubbed it onto my knees and down my chins and immediately felt a cooling sensation followed but a very slight warming sensation. Any excess I had, I rubbed on my elbows and onto my hands. It did take about a minute for the gel to fully absorb into my skin, but after fully absorbed there was no sticky residue. I was able to put on my clothes without worrying about ruining them.<br /><br />It took a little while but I did notice the pain begin to dissipate in my knees and chins and did not feel the need to run to my medicine cabinet to grab my pills.  This is a welcome relief as now I have an excellent alternative to taking unwanted medicine. I have to tell you I was quite surprised as to how well this worked for me and how quickly. The gel is quite soothing and can be applied up to 6 times daily, if needed, according to the manufacturer. I am glad I found this Gold Gel and will happily continue to use it.<br /><br />I did receive this product at a discount for my thorough review and honest opinion. These are my thoughts and conclusions solely.<br /><br />PROS<br />*Soothing and cooling gel<br />*Relieves pain in joints<br />*Dries quickly<br />*Not sticky<br />*No odor<br /><br />CONS<br />*none
