Hello again my name is Shellie, I'm Keith's mom I was told another form of pain relief for bpi injuries is capsaicin (cayenne)Has anyone tried that, and if so where can you buy the topical form?

the cream at the pharmacy is called Zostrix I have tried and didn't help. Sorry.

tryed it too gave up after burning my eyes and fingers on my good hand because i was unable to wash it off well after i applyed it on the other hand. The aggravation wasnt worth trying for more than a few days

thanks for the information, sorry I haven't been responding much, having some difficulty posting and chatting as well on line, my son Keith saw his rehab. Doctor today and she did prescibe him a low dose of methadone 5mg, he said that many of the people on this web site reported good results with that medicine,anyone else have any other medicines that seem to work for them?
