When I use capsaicin for my arthritis, I feel a burning sensation on my skin. Should I stop using the product?
You feel the burning sensation because capsaicin is made from hot chili peppers. The burning sensation is normal. You may also feel a pricking or itching sensation. Once you've used it several times, however, the burning should be followed by pain relief.
