The compounded cream had Diclofenac as one of the ingredients along with Lidocaine and several others.
When I called the componding pharmacy to tell them about my reaction to it, they said mostly it was from the Diclofenac.
They can makeup another cream without it if I want and my doctor agrees.
Waiting for a response from them.

Apparently, Diclofenac has a certain potency requiring a measure of caution in its use. I've never had a negative reaction, although I know others have. My partner, for example, can use Diclofenac, but she has to be very careful about how much and how often. If your pharmacy can prepare a lotion without Diclofenac, that's great. I hope it works out. –Ray (@ray666)
