Hi everyone, I'm Glen. ( Short for Glinys)

There's some great advise on this forum, it's really nice to see people offering help to others.

I am wondering if anyone has tried Turmeric oil for massaging on to painful joints at all?

I can't take a Turmeric supplement because of interactions with the meds I am on. I have psoriatic arthritis, and although generally it's controlled quite well, I do have days when I could do with a little extra help.

So if anyone has tried the oil I'd be grateful for any info on what you thought of it, did it help?

Thank you .😊

    I understand that you have psoriatic arthritis and looking for advice about turmeric oil. You have come to the right place. Our website has a lot of useful information and though I can find nothing specific about oil it does have information on turmeric which might be of use. I've put a couple of links in below.

    Hi Glen

    I havnt tried tumeric oil, but I use comfrey oil at night on my knees in conjunction with the imak knee sleeves. It seems to take away that horrible feeling I get down the backs of my legs.
