You can certainly use it for knee pain (once your scar is fully healed), but be careful not to take oral anti-inflammatories at the same time, otherwise you run the risk of absorbing more than the recommended daily dosage.

I do not use it every day probably every 3rd day before by Remicade treatment which is on the 8th of September. For about 2 week...
