Cayenne pepper is the active ingredient in some arthritis creams. It is more effective if you can get cayenne powder and apply it yourself. Mix it into a paste with water or oil, and apply to the skin. Messy, but it works! I heard of a pianist who used a paste of cayenne pepper and castor oil to cure arthritic fingers. Each night before bed he rubbed the paste on his fingers, and then covered them with a bandage or strips of paper held on with elastic bands (not too tight). There was a noticable reduction in pain after the first night. After 3 months the fingers had 80% normal flexibility, and after nine months were completely healed, and he was able to continue as a piano player.
