I use emu oil,it has worked for me ,stretch marks,surgical sites,that kind of thing-make sure it is PURE-no smell ,odorless,and colorless,white/creamy color.(no taste,though I wouldn't eat it!) hope this helps,you could POSSIBLY see a difference in 2 wks. Pick it up at a health food store,prices vary ,so be careful,it looks oily at 1st,but soaks in and works for headaches and muscle pain too.
