Q: Arthritis, Will this hurt me If i use it?

Hello, I have arthritis in my knee and have suffered from arthritis in my right hand due to a injury when i was younger and i have constant pain shooting through both. So my son came home with a pair of heated gloves and he had me try them on, i wore them and they got hot right away and after a few minutes my right hand began to loosen up and there was no more pain, i was impressed with this on how well it worked for my hand, my son also had told me that the same company has rechargeable heated compression wraps that did the same thing, which i am considering getting for my knee so i can where it at work. So anyway John said he didnt know if i should use these because there are infrared heat rays coming off these things and it may not be good for my arthritis, so my question to you is, will these things harm me in any way with those inrared rays coming out of them? if not i am buying one, id rather wear one of these than continue using that smelly cream.

thank you for your answers in advance,

Cheryl
