99.9% is sold in feed stores for use on animals, and 99.995% is sold as pharmacy grade - difference is that the purer grade has been sent through an additional charcoal filtering to remove any tiny contaminates that may remain after processing. Amazon sells the purest 99.995 grade very reasonable.
One of the most recommended ways to apply is with a natural bristle paint brush, or organic cotton balls. Never use water to mix with unless it is distilled water, otherwise what ever may be in the water will be also pulled into your skin; anything you mix with DMSO will be pulled into the skin and below. It is a very safe product if you use properly and very beneficial to many aches and pains.
Don't cover the application if you use it anywhere above the waist and dilute it further than any mixture you use below the waist. You may cover it if used below the waste but use clean white cotton material or towels so that the dye from the material is not also sucked through you skin. An application can be wiped off after 30 minutes as that is the longest it takes to absorb the benefits.
Always make sure your skin in very clean and dry before using. Never rub it on with your hand - it can cause skin irritation in that spot and if left on the palms of your hands, will also look like they've been soaked in water for hours. The skin will most likely turn a reddish color for a short period of time as the circulation is stepped up but will go away very soon. Slight itching may happen but do not itch it. It will stop soon. Not all experience these side affects but a lot do.
Hope this was helpful to those with questions.

Do you have any information on how to use it internally? My dog has a gum tumor that is growing rapidly. Had a surgery and they debulked and removed most of it but now it is coming back. It is also infected and has a strong odor. I am desperate and would try anything. I am giving him Essiac tea, supplements, and Coloidal silver. Do you have any suggestions on what could help? How to use DMSO internally?Thank you!

I read about a lady that made soda crackers with added activated charcoal to feed to her chickens and her kids would sneak into them. I use charcoal for oral health.Replied by Richard from California on 08/19/2022
Take a clove of fresh garlic, smash it and make the dog lie down, press the garlic on the tumor and keep holding on the growth for 5 or 10 minutes do this twice daily, and the tumor will be gone in a few days, tretaed one of my dogs, garlic kills cancer on contact.Replied by Susie from Montana on 07/05/2023
Just curious if the 99% Pure bought in feed stores is appropriate for taking this internally?Replied by Kelly from Lehigh Acres, FL on 05/18/2024
I tore my toenail off and put DMSO on the nail bed which immediately staunched the flow of blood and cut the pain. I thought it might hurt later so I soaked a gauze pad and taped it to my toe. After 2 hours it began to sting - the skin blistered where it was not able to evaporate - I would not advise covering it any where ...Replied by Ashley22 from Michigan on 12/04/2025
Hey Kelly! Curious how your toe turned out? I was trying to help plantar fasciitis today. I rubbed frankincense on my heel, then used an organic cotton round with pure turpentine gum spirits, then another round with 99% dmso, then wrapped it and wore it like that for probably 5-6 hours. My skin is now dry, hard and tight and throbbing. I soaked it in bentonite clay, then put a castor oil wrap on it. I'm feeling pretty foolish. Wondering if you had any advice on what to do or how this thing is going to turn out? The skin is white and feels like it could die off?
