I am happy to not feel the pain
I have tried it on my shoulder and ankle a couple of times (each) for the aches caused by workout strains and arthritis. I have not noticed a taste of garlic, or any other taste as a side-effect, but it does make me a bit thirstier for a little while after the application. I am not noticing any smells either. The pain is gone almost instantly after the application. I cannot attest to the actual healing powers as my troubles are chronic. However, I am happy to not feel the pain. I would recommend washing hands immediately after the application. Also, just a tiny dab of this gel is enough for a fairly large surface of skin. It absorbs almost instantly.
