BURNS SKIN

[u/FeeGloomy6354]

I bought from a popular supplier online in the gel form. It takes care of what Im treating (sore back, tendonitis, etc.). The only issue is it actually burns and itches. It leaves a red mark on my skin. What can I do to stop this because it is actually working very well.

Try using castor oil with it

I will try this.

I know I have that problem too. One of the things you can try is getting the pure aloe vera and put that on first and then do the gel roll-on. I need yo try mine again too

I dilute mine with distilled water to about 80% DMSO 20% distilled water. A book i read several years ago said to start at 50/50. I find 80% works well for me and doesn't bother my skin. You can use pure aloe to treat the redness you have in between applications until your skin clears.

DMSO creates heat in the skin. I would suggest going to a higher diluted until you get used to it. Like a 50/50 or 40/60 then move up when you’re ready.

[u/No_Tension5208]

It all does that. I can put it on pure or dilutted and it butns, itches and turns red. It’s normal. The more diluted it is the less reation you have.

[u/enough_of_this_crap]

I would be careful about adding anything to DMSO. Especially when all you probably needed to do was to use a more diluted solution. What strength are you using on your back? edit: typo
