I have never used sports balms, gels, sprays or pain killers of any kind, no anti-inflammatory, Ibuprofen, Acetaminophen etc. I guess I have always accepted aches and pains as part of the process and never thought they helped cure or truly relieve symptoms, so why bother?
But, I'm no spring chicken...got a tweaked shoulder here, an achy calf there, a spazzy lower back now and then. My ankle is so shot that I genuflect before every morning after a hard run before taking the first steps out of bed and pray I can put weight on my foot.
- Are there any benefits to using them beyond pain management?
- Does anyone have any specific products they recommend?
- Any suggestions on how and when to use them?
