DMSO for humans?

How about freezing joints so they can numb the pain and be able to play.

Back in the late 70's I was introduced to DMSO by some of my professional baseball players on my minor league team. I was the athletic trainer.

I threw batting practice every other day to have some fun and by mid season my elbow felt like an alligator was teething on it it hurt so bad. So I use all the conventional stuff to try and reduce the pain and inflammation. Ice, ultra sound, nsaids, and no relief. My room mate was a pitcher from Tampa and he gave me a bottle of dmso in a roll on deodorant type bottle. Hesitant at first, but I used it and within 48 hrs, all the pain and stiffness was gone. Hooked baby. And every road trip we took down to Fla where it was for sale in stores, it was purchased.

And since everybody either dipped or chewed tobacco, we did not experience the bad garlic taste or smell.
