My dad makes balm for his arthritis

oh, does he apply/rub it on his back or joints ? what kind of effects does this have ? I've never heard of it

Joints (fingers, elbows), lower back. Relieves pain and symptoms. Plus it's just made with coconut oil so you can actually bake with it, lol.

Alright. I might try this, thanks

One thing to note is that when you make it the smell is pungent. Your neighbours will know and your house may smell for a while.

There are many websites with instructions on how to make it.

Thanks. I made some butter once, I don't remember it being smelly. It was a small quantity though. And I didn't use coconut oil but actual butter, although I doubt this would change anything.
