WD40 is reported by thousands to help relieve knee joint pain – typed WD40 & Knee Joints into Search?

I typed “WD40 and Knee Joints” into my Yahoo search engine and found several stories where many individuals reported significant relief from knee joint pain by spraying WD40 on their sore and stiff knees. They mentioned applying it one to four times over the course of one to two weeks, resulting in great improvements.

Per the MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet): Prolonged or repeated contact may produce mild iritation and defatting with possible dermatitis.

Per WD40’s web site: Does not contain any know Caner Causing Agents.

Per About.Com: There has never been any scientific research to prove this theory. Possible reasons for the confusion: Massage Action, Coolness of the Spray or a Placebo Effect.

MY OPINION: If you have not suffered any exposure issues (dermatitis or dry skin) then that is not an issue as it is dependant on the user and frequency of use. Their is no known Cancer Causing Ingrediants (yet their is in everything else from the food we eat to the gasses released by material used in our car interiors). Thus I don’t not see any immediate health risks if used in moderation.

My father stumpled across this remedy backwards for his arthritis. He noticed that after using to clean something the swelling and disfigurment of his hands subsided and so did the pain. He isolated the cause of the relief to WD40. He than did studies on his own: application via towels, direct spray, indirect spray, and even rubbing with and without the WD40. His Hypothosis was it worked. Whether it truly worked is irrelevant as he found more relief from the WD40 than nearly any other medicine or technique. The only medicine that provided better relief had a side effect that would damage his liver (that was proven in scientific studies).

Remember as you provide your own review question the sources motives. EVERY source opposing the use of WD40 the I found has financial ties, directly and indirectly, to the companies providing treatments and medications for Arthritis.

Having a family history of Arthritis and understanding its crippling pain first hand I respect any treatment that can provide my loved ones some relief thus allowing them to enjoy life.

You should check this sciatica natural treatment http://cure-sciatica.info/

Normally, I would not answer a question like this as my expertise is generally in medication but I had severe sciatica while I was pregnant with my 3rd child (after having had twins) and I had sciatica so bad that I was finding it difficult to walk. I tried massage therapy and physical therapy and could not take medication

I went to the chiropractor and the pain was instantly relieved. My hips and lower back were out of alignment because I had carried twins the year before. On occasion a Doctor of Osteopathy (DO) can also work but they usually only work on one joint at a time – the chiropractor will do your whole back which works faster. Anyone who does not believe in chiropractors will tell you they are quacks – don’t listen.

I don’t necessarily believe that chiropractors can cure things like diabetes but they can definitely relieve some types of back pain especially if a pinched nerve is involved which is usually the cause of sciatica. Try a reputable chiropractor ASAP!

WD 40 has no medical value for the treatment of arthritis, and as it is made from petroleum distillates is likely to cause skin drying, cracking and subsequent localized infections.

The anecdotes often reported regarding the success with this product are felt to be based on three main points.

1. Placebo effect – if it makes hinges move smoothly then it should work on my knee. If people believe this strongly enough, they may believe they have better function. This would be similar to giving a person a pill daily and telling them it will make their pain better. Often if they believe strongly enough, they perceive less pain, even if the pill has no pain relief value.

2. Cooling effect – compressed sprays are cool when sprayed on the skin. This cooling often provides a temporary feeling of relief, such as can be experience with the wintergreen often added to many pain relief rubs, balms and lotions.

3. Increased circulation – if the WD 40 is rubbed into the skin, then the localized circulation will be increased which will allow the body’s natural functions to decrease the arthritis pain temporarily.

However, these same results would likely be similar if anyone was to test WD 40 against cooled water sprayed and rubbed into the skin.

However, as the company which makes WD 40 recommends quickly washing the area with soap and water if it is accidentally sprayed on the skin; it is doubtful that any medical testing will ever be done with this product.

Imagine for a moment your arthritis completely vanishing right now.

If, in a moment, your pain and stiffness melted away. And your joints all of a sudden functioned like a well-oiled machine.

Like a magic wand was waived, you’d be able to jump up from your chair and run around the room like a kid.

And imagine that you’d never have to suffer as much as a pinch of arthritis stiffness or pain ever again.

I know this sounds impossible right now, but bear with me, because sometimes miracles happen.

It was a gift from a woman on the other side of the world. From the kindness of her heart, she took pity on my suffering and taught me how to completely reverse my arthritis.

Today, I want to do the same for you!
