2 Old Goats Lotion

Posted by golfgame @golfgame, Jun 11 10:37am

I saw a Neurologist recently and I shared with her that I have been using Wisemen Balm on my feet and ankles. She had not heard of that but said that one of her patients is using 2 Old Goats lotion. There is also an extra-strength version available. Has anyone used either of them?

I wanted to give the 2 Olds Goats Lotion a try. I'll make sure to update after use. Thanks for sharing.

Tell us if you use the Extra Strength

I have used Two Old Goats. It's soothing, at best, and provides some relief when I am trying to sleep at night.

Regular or extra strength?

It took me a while to get the lotion because I ordered it online. I can say that I have seen a slight improvement overall, but it is too soon to tell. I did try it on some soft tissue pain I was having, and it worked well. I ordered regular strength, but will order extra strength next purchase.

I gave it a try and found it to not be effective. I'm sticking with Wisemen Healing Balm as that give me relief.

I’ll continue for 2 weeks and see what happens. When you say you got more relief with the alternative are you able to quantify the differences? I think that would be helpful. Appreciate your response.

My neuropathy in my feet and ankles is probably very minor compared to others, it was diagnosed as mild or moderate, I call it mild.

I have not tingling or numbness in the feet. I periodically will slightly misstep but not seriously.

My main issue is in the ankles. If you can envision putting both hands on one ankle and turning each in the opposite direction It gives me a feeling of tightness, I'm guessing this is what most people would call it burning. I also have the feeling of swelling but there is not any that is noticeable. All of this is worse at night and all nights are not the same.

I have had about three occasions where sharp jabbing pains went up one leg or the other.

When I said that the Wisemen Healing Balm gave me relief where the Two Guys and a Goat did not I meant that the latter did nothing, it simply felt like moisturizing lotion whereas the Wisemen took the burning away.

I hope this helps.

I use OUTBACK original oil and it really helps my feet. I apply it each morning and wear compression socks during the day and the burning sensation is gone. The burning sensation and pain used to be a big problem for me but this oil really helps me.
