How Do Know If Creams Working?

Postby CanadaHell » 26 Oct 2013, 07:45

Been taking Nifi & Lidocaine Since Oct 8. How do you know if it is working or not? Ofcourse, I still have difficulties wondering if I got it in there correctly? SUGGESTIONS?

I would say it's still early days to notice a definite improvement... So try not to be too disappointed.
I'm sure it will still work weather you manage to get it up there or just around... The creams are all absorbed through the skin... So don't panic... And hang on in there!!!

Hi Canada, nifedipine didn't help me- I got relief very quickly when I switched; like, things improved in a couple of days. You have nitro, don't you? Switching to nitro helped me - seems like everyone reacts differently. Good luck!
Nifedipine/lidocaine, no help
Diltiazem, effective, but caused major rash
Nitroglycerine, effective.
Topical estrogen for final healing.
Gentle heat to bottom - pain relief, muscle relaxant
Kondremul mineral oil
Time - lots of time.
Status - Healed!

Hi CH..I used nitro/xylicaine compound, it didn't matter wither I applied it inside or not, as OMB said, it gets absorbed.

Give it time, Since I wasn't getting any headaches, I also thought it wasn't working, but it took some time.
All the luck, heal well.
