I've used salve many times. I think it's effectiveness really depends on how severe your pain is and where the pain is located (in joint, bone, tendon, skin). My uses have always been joint related. More specifically my knee. It's worked great for my knee. Basically I'll put it on then forget that I had any knee pain. However I don't have any kind of diagnosis on my knee pain. It hurts bad for a few days then goes away for awhile. I've been told I probably have some loose cartilage that is moving around or getting caught then loosening up after time. I've also tried it on my back where I have an arthritic facet joint and it doesn't work at all. I also wouldn't recommend using it on your back as its typically a very large area and can be expensive if you're applying multiple times a day. So yeah just depends on location and severity.
