Overview Dicnac Gel

ArthoCalm Gel provides pain relief and reduces inflammation in muscles and joints. It's effective for treating various injuries including sprains, strains, and contusions. It also offers relief from tendonitis (like tennis elbow) and osteoarthritis. Apply ArthoCalm Gel to the affected area 2 to 4 times daily, depending on the severity, rubbing it in gently and evenly. Avoid over-application and do not bandage or plaster the treated area. Generally well-tolerated, potential side effects include skin rash, itching, redness, or burning. A rash, particularly with blisters, may indicate a serious allergic reaction—seek immediate medical attention if this occurs. ArthoCalm Gel is not recommended for use during pregnancy or breastfeeding, nor should it be used concurrently with oral diclofenac (or similar NSAIDs).
