Neither my sister nor myself had much luck with Gallixa. It didn't seem to help her neck pain and while it did seem to help my hip pain I was using it for, the relief was limited and short lived. I'm using homeopathy for the hip pain now and it offers more and longer relief. I am currently using Gallixa for gnat bites that I got the other day and it does relieve the itching very significantly, but oddly has little effect on the swelling? I normally use Vicks for gnat bites and their effect is similar, but I would say Gallixa is slightly more effective and lasts longer per application. The smell to me is more like maple syrup than strawberries.

Hi Art

I wish this would have posted earlier today. I just purchased two 2oz tubes at 1.00PM today.

I made the purchase and it is already on the way. If it does not work for my needs it want be the first $60.00 I have thrown away and I am sure it won't be the last .LOL

Hello Cpn,

I think it is still worth trying. My sister's case is a tough one as she has multiple issues going on in her neck and I was hoping to find something that would work as well as Stopain that she could use in the wintertime as it snows where she is and Stopain has a significant amount of menthol which precludes her from using Stopain in the cold weather.

Please report your results back on EC so other members can get more feedback!

Thanks for the feedback, Art!

For your sister's neck pain, I learned it might take several days of using it three times per day for significant pain relief to be noticed. I think you mentioned in another post some time ago she had painful stenosis in her neck so yes, that would be tricky to treat. 

I have still been having great results using Gallixa on myself and my dogs. I find it to be most effective if applied a few times a day but on some conditions, like dermatitis and dry lips on my elderly dogs, only once or twice a day is enough to make a significant difference.

For my herniated spine, I applied Gallixa to the sore area on my spine and took one enteric-coated aspirin. It was the BEST combo of the many I tried for pain, so I really love this product!!! And it smells a bit like cotton candy to me, very nice.

Art, I've a right hip joint deteriorating and in agony since April. Even CBD oil (now legal via pharmacy) didn't help and the pharmacist said I would be the lst one it didn't help. Did you consult a homeopath or research your own remedy? Thanks.

Frances,

If pharmaceutical grade CBD oil did not offer any relief, I am doubtful that homeopathy in the short term is going to be useful, but possibly in the long term so you will have to use something else for pain management in the meantime. It is difficult to make suggestions for a couple of reasons. One you have not said what you have been diagnosed with and two, you have not said everything that you have tried to relieve the pain.

As an example, if it is one of the many forms of arthritis, have you tried borax? If it is a tendon or ligament issue, are you taking a statin drug or specific line of antibiotics that might be causing it? There are alternatives to statins and antibiotics that could potentially resolve the issue, but you have not given enough information to form a reasonable opinion. If it is very severe bone deterioration a hip replacement may be the last resort.
