Feldene gel is primarily used to relieve pain and inflammation in conditions affecting muscles and joints. It is used to treat joint inflammation such as osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. It is also used to treat sports injuries such as sprains, bruises, and swelling resulting from minor injuries. Feldene gel works by reducing inflammation and relieving pain. The gel is applied directly to the affected area and is absorbed through the skin without affecting the underlying tissues. It is particularly effective in quickly relieving pain resulting from acute or chronic injuries to the joints and soft tissues.
Feldene gel is usually used two to three times daily as directed by the doctor. It is preferable to avoid applying it to open wounds or irritated tissues. Hands should be washed well after use to avoid contact with the eyes or mucous membranes.
