Yeah, all that stuff works really well but I damaged my hip a few years back and had some swelling in my back especially around the sciatic nerve. I was prescribed 'naprosyn' and it worked like a charm. It won't control much of the pain if there's permanent damage but it makes the swelling go down. You can buy it over the counter now at Wal-Mart...it's just called Naproxen-Sodium. Stuff rocks.Health Question & Answer
