Question 1

Why don't you just list the ingredients as a matter of course?  We get the ad-speak but too little info.

Accepted Answer

Just received 2 Penetrex 3 oz roll on applicators.  I have used all the Penetrex products.  First, the cream and now the roll on product.  The new roll on bottles do not have ARNICA as an ingredient.  I looked at my first bottle and ARNICA is listed 3rd in ingredients.  The formula has changed.

Question 2

Has anyone used this for Arthritic hand/finger joint pain? Did it give any relief?

Accepted Answer

I have to disagree with the other guitarist. it helps me for sure in my right hand, relieving finger and wrist joint pain, (the left hand is fine). my condition isn't severe though, so perhaps there's the difference ??? also it did take a few applications before 'kicking in'. anyway at $20 a shot i'm sure not going to be imagining its properties and i'm ordering my third jar now.

Question 3

Does it work for peripheral neuropathy (feet and hands)?

Accepted Answer

I have used it as directed for my feet for over three weeks. It says that it will work within 7-10 days. I am now able to sleep at night rather than have the burning in my feet keep me up all night, but I don't know if it is because I have become used to the pain. During the day the pain seems somewhat reduced, but again, I may just be getting used to it. I could not, in good faith, recommend the use of Penetrex for peripheral neuropathy of the feet.

Question 4

is this good on knees?

Accepted Answer

+1 here. This worked great for me after flaring up my ACL and medial meniscus tears. I had quite significant effusion in the knee only had about 20 degrees of flexion. I bought the product purely based on reviews not expecting much at all. Anyway two days of using this (after four weeks of little improvement) I had recovered another 20 degrees of ROM in the knee and by day 4 I had full ROM and substantially lower pain. I suspect I will need another arthroscopy to clear out the knee but I can't be happier with the product. Oh, and I'm an occupational therapist so have some idea about injury rehab. Hope it works for you.
