I used the same Ibuprofen gel for my lower back pain (arthritis) when I was a working man. I found that after progressive uses, the length of time it numbed the pain grew gradually shorter.

Since retiring I use nothing, I just try to limit doing things that place my body in an awkward posture . . (stop giggling Hugh)
