After having tried every topical cream on the market for Arthritis pain in my wrist, I tried emu oil and immediately got relief. I was amazed. Normally I had to wear a brace on my left hand in order to sleep because the pain was so bad. But, since applying emu oil (a tiny bit about every four hours) I have no pain (only a slight bit of stiffness) and can function pretty normally again. I feel like I got my life back!
