Apply a pea-sized amount of cream to the affected area twice daily, gently massaging it into the skin until absorbed. Avoid applying to broken skin.
Consistency is key. Regular application is more beneficial than sporadic use. Expect to see improvement gradually, typically within a few weeks of consistent use. Results vary, depending on individual factors like severity of the condition and overall health.
Pain reduction might be noticeable sooner than other improvements, such as increased flexibility. Don’t be discouraged if you don’t see immediate, dramatic changes. Maintain your application schedule; improvements often build over time.
Combine cream application with other recommended therapies, such as stretching exercises and orthotic devices. This multifaceted approach often yields better outcomes. Your compounded cream is a part of a larger treatment plan; it’s not a standalone cure.
Open communication with your physician or compounding pharmacist is crucial. Report any adverse reactions or lack of progress. They can adjust your treatment plan if needed. Be patient, and monitor your progress closely.
