We do not use mustard oil but the Internet has been singing its praises. I have weak knee joints and they pain as well I have to take rest in between household chores Now that the maid has issues too we together tackle the household chores I am seriously thinking of buyingf some medicated mustard oil that is recommended for massaging affected areas. Have you used it and what is your opinion

I've never heard of using mustard oil to relieve pain or help joints but... there have been studies done with mice that show pain-relieving properties... I also found a medical article talking about mustard oil... Notice, there is a warning on the site that says using pure mustard oil on humans can cause burns to the skin... IF you decide to buy and use it, please be careful... I'm including a link to the article I read:

@allknowing It works as a sort of "anesthetizer".

I have never used or even heard of it being used. But then I haven't had any need to try it.
