Members shared widespread experiences with fibromyalgia affecting tendons and ligaments, with many describing constant pain that intensifies during flare-ups to the point of screaming and crying. Several members recommended Biofreeze Professional, a stronger gel lotion available at Walmart, pharmacies, and Amazon, as a helpful tool to manage daily pain in the legs, back, hips, neck, and shoulders, though many noted it can be costly and only provides temporary relief. A recurring theme was the debilitating nature of the pain, with members describing difficulty performing basic tasks like lifting a coffee cup or walking across a room, alongside the emotional toll of managing relentless discomfort for years.

My tendons hurt too. Biofreeze is good the only thing is the cost.
