        I have a sore knee, well it is sore on the inside corner. It is not on the joint. It doesn’t hurt always and I can walk fine for me, but once in awhile the pain returns. I have been trying Hops and it does give some relief.  I have tried hot and cold packs, but they don’t seem to make any difference. I’m wondering if it is nerve pain or muscle pain. It goes down from the inside of my right knee to below the knee cap.

        I am getting tired of the pain. I can’t go to the doctor.

          This has been a good learning experience for me in using herbs. I still have pain, but after using herbs consistently I am receiving some relief. I now understand about the difference of healing with herbs and taking a drug for relief.

          I have been using hops, but as I study the pain lessons I added White Sage, Rest Easy and Teasel. I mix it up. Today I took teasel internally also.  I also have started wrapping my knee to give it support. That does help. The bad pain moments aren’t as bad.  It hurts more at night. At night wrapping it has helped and the herbs are helping in that I have only taken pain pills once.

          Big learning curve here.

            Have a look at the Joint Support formula too. Lot of good anti-inflammatories there.

            Don't use herbs or combine herbs with medications or use them during lactation or pregnancy without talking with your healthcare provider.
