Chronic pain caused by joint diseases is not uncommon, especially in old age.The hip or knee joints are often affected, but osteoarthritis and rheumatism can extend to many joints.Muscular rheumatism, swelling and inflammation of the soft tissues near the joints, such as joint capsulitis or tendonitis, are also very unpleasant and painful.To relieve the pain in such cases, ibutop® pain cream can be used.It ensures sustained penetration of the skin, allowing the active ingredient ibuprofen to take effect specifically at the site of pain.The active ingredient ibuprofen provides long-lasting relief on the spot when applied several times a day.

Ibuprofen is a proven active ingredient in pain treatment, which has particularly pain-relieving but also anti-inflammatory properties.Pain arises primarily from the release of prostaglandins, so-called local hormones, which are released in the area of injury or illness.This is exactly where ibuprofen comes into play because it inhibits the production of these hormones, which reduces pain.The underlying inflammation is also slowed down, which can have a beneficial effect on the treatment of rheumatic joint diseases.As a cream, ibutop® pain cream can penetrate the skin specifically at the affected area and relieve underlying inflammation along with the pain.
