It improved a lot almost immediately though it's begun to recur, though not as bad.

I'm going to ask him on my next visit if it's a good idea to use that much Ib. for a long period. I'm down to one a day because of concerns on that score.

Dr.Weil.com says steroid injections into the sheath can help though he says he'd avoid it if possible. Also says DMSO might help, I used that in the past, results inconclusive, will try it again.
