Since this post is about Voltaren, I'm wondering why it is not supposed to be used on the shoulders or neck. I can't remember if the general prohibition was above the waist. Does anyone know the reason for this? Thank you.

@tsc I was on Diclofenac, the prescription name for Voltaren before Voltaren became an OTC drug. Not using it on my upper body was never mentioned but I was on it for my hip so perhaps the doctor didn't find it necessary to mention it.

My doctor gave it to me specifically FOR my neck! Go figure!

I never heard of that. I'm pretty sure my doc hasn't either! She and I both use it there.
