A: I have used this for 10 years, 2%, was perscription only at one time. I have never seen any sores. The limit to the use, about 2" can be used on any joint and back. Confirm w Dr; every 2- 4 hours.

A: My mom was originally given it for her neoropathy in her lower legs. Because it was a larger area of the body, she developed sores in her mouth. It has to be used in a limited amount of space is my non-medical person understanding.

A: Thanks for asking, Voltaren has not been studied for the relief of arthritis pain in the shoulders, hips, and back.

A: my doctor suggested usage for neck and back; i also use it on my arms and shoulder

A: A few months ago my daughter saw her PCP because of neck pain. Her doctor said it was okay to use it on the neck. Just don't use it too much.

A: I’ve had several doctors including a podiatrist and my primary advise me to use this wherever needed. I’ve used it for years with no problems.

A: Voltaren emugel is sold in the UK specifically for muscle pain. Same ingredients as Voltaren for joint pain sold here in the US. Looks like it’s marketed differently in each country. I use it on my back — works really well.

A: I am not a doctor, but am in the same boat as you. For me, the issue is NSAIDs can cause stomach bleeding, and I have colitis which when flaring can cause bleeding in the digestive tract. So to not risk setting anything off down there, my doctors have told me for years to avoid oral NSAIDs, but topical are ok. So the entire reason I use products like this is to avoid the oral version.
