Castor Oil Relieve Pain In The Knees

  1. Castor oil should be applied topically to the knee for the best effective results. The compounds present in castor oil act as an immuniser by increasing the count of the T-cells within a matter of days. The T-cell builds a defensive wall against harmful pathogens and toxins. The lymphocytes act as white blood cells by repelling and countering viruses and bacteria.
  2. T-cells are a form of antibodies which protect the body from viral diseases and infections. Castor oil boosts the fighting mechanism behind the antibodies. However, it must be kept in mind that castor oil should be applied topically to the unbroken skin of the wounds and knees to see effective results. You can also use castor oil in the form of gels and sprays on the external parts of the body to medicate and eliminate the pain.

It is available in the form of a non-sticky and easily absorbable lotion. It is known to be effective in instantly relieving knee and joint pain.
