You should try pernaton gel/cream. You can use as much of it as you like and can't overdose on it. A lot of elderly use it for arthritis pain.

I don't believe in painkillers except in extreme circumstances like tooth ache/ear ache.

They reduce your tolerance for pain which leads you to taking more in a viscious cycle, and anyway pain is the body's way of telling you something is wrong, painkillers mask that signal and you can end up doing even more damage.

Totally agree :thumbup
I finished early on Friday and stayed off sick today because of knee pain. I had an ACL reconstruction on it already back in 07 when I was in the Army. No way I am going through that again for these assholes.
