For a long time the husband in construction does not work, but about Fastum gel still remember. Work at the construction site implies small and not very injuries, backfalls and just the pain of fatigue in all limbs. Her husband very much helped Fastum gel. After the shower, as a moisturizer, I spread all the problematic sore spots. Helps gel perfectly. Pain removes quickly.

We prefer active rest, but there is also rarely any injury without injuries. In hiking, we always take it to the first aid kit and there is no case that Fastum does not come in handy: we treat all the bruises and strains. It removes the edema well, it anesthetizes. In general, the wand-zashchalochka for active people. A small cost is another important plus. If I also helped with a headache, he would not have any price at all!

Last year, problems with the neck began, when any turn causes severe pain, especially at night it is difficult to bear. Have made a roentgen, have defined a cervical osteochondrosis with 3 on 6 cervical backbone.The doctor recommended first to smear the neck with Fastum gel. In the acute phase, the gel completely did not help me to get rid of the pain. Only with time and with nyxes the pain has passed.

Fastem gel it as water and in appearance and in action. Not at all helped, although they smeared the whole tube to her husband. While the pepper plaster on the site of the injury was not put on and warmed up the place of the bruise, it hurt like before.

I found out about this gel when problems started with a back from sedentary work. But after applying gelfast fastum to me it became better. Now, in order not to happen again, I try to do a warm-up for the back often, periodically I go through a massage course and I always apply a gelfoil as soon as the pain starts. He does an excellent job.

Site visitor feedback Danna moved to the required section:
Among similar preparations Fastum gel the best. We have tried many things for the treatment of osteochondrosis in the mother. We stopped on it. He gives her real relief.At the same time it's great that there are no bandages, no compresses are needed. And the tube lasts a long time. It is more advantageous than other means.

I thought that problems with the back appear only after 50 years. It turned out that if you spend all day on your heels or sitting at your computer - then your back and at 27 can begin to hurt. I had to choose a remedy for pain relief. Many ointments were "pushed away" by their sharp smell - with such "aroma" you will not come to work. But Fastum Gel pleased - it smells very nice, floral smell, and the skin is pleasantly cold. And, most importantly, it helps - relaxes, relieves pain!

Mary89, A good story, if not for advertising. For the first time a warning, but if such an advertising policy is continued by the representatives of the drug, it will be included in the blacklist, and all those marked with such advertising comments will be banned, the moderation of the reviews will be significantly tightened. Let's live amicably and no more hooligan.

This is hell. Has stung your back and anointed with your wonderful drug. After a couple of hours, the sensation that Satan licked himself. Are you guys comrades who invented this and are not afraid that you will be in hell yourself? And it's not washed away. I will die in agony!
P.S. Back pain passed.

You'll see the advertisement - there are just some miracle-remedies for chondrosis and radiculitis, they help you instantly, even though they dance for joy. And in fact, this is a common advertising trick for people to run to buy. How much she used fastum-gel, did not help at all. Voltaren - there too. Finally it dawned upon me that advertising of medicines can not be believed and went to a doctor in a paid clinic (our precinct only fastum-gels and advises). There I was assigned to Milgamma compositum, a complex of vitamins and nutrients that restore the damaged fibers in the back. I never even heard of such a remedy, but I bought it, it's better for doctors to know.And really helped, though not immediately. Now, though I still can not dance, but I have not felt acute pain for a long time, even under physical stress.

I did not find this in the instructions, but on the box it is indicated that when taking gelatine gelatin, avoid exposure to sunlight or UV rays to the treated areas. I am old and it is not clear to me whether I can simultaneously perform procedures for laser treatment and fasting gel?

arxet, Can. Laser radiation has a different spectrum compared to solar radiation, so photodermatitis should not manifest itself when using Fastum gel together with laser procedures.
