HAs anyone used DMSO for sore muscles

[SlowButSteady]

In the Eighties, it was the thing to use for lots of stuff in the veterinary field. We used it in small animal medicine when we used caparsolate to treat heartworms and would get swollen legs from extravasation.

YUK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is undoubtedly the nastiest smelling/tasting stuff in the world when you accidentally get a little bit on you. And I could even taste it when we had a dog in the clinic that it had been used on.

Glad we don't use it any more!

Love DMSO. I know people that use the Wintercrest and swear by it. I have used it on my horses for years and have actually had a doctor ask me if I had it. When I said yes, he said use it on your neck when it won't release. My head hurt every day. It was just a matter of how much and if it would turn into a migraine. Just like anything, it should be used with discretion and appropriately. I can taste it even before I use it. One more thought, mine is diluted so it isn't full strength.

I have an acquainted who has used DMSO over the years for various ailments. He has an incurable brain tumor now. We have all wondered in retrospect if the use of DMSO was a wise choice.
