In my husband’s younger days when bones did not crack and muscles did not ache he raced in the motor cross forever believing he would never grow old because he was invincible. On the eve on his 13th birthday his older brother woke him and asked if he wanted to go to the track, of course he jumped at the chance. Things were going well, the track was a little wet but nothing he had not ridden in before and he went over the third jump and something went wrong. The next thing he remembers is lying on the ground with the bike on top of him and his leg hurting really badly. His brother strolled over thinking this was nothing that had not happened before and lifted the bike off of Matt has he starts to scream. That was when they both realized the foot peddle had embedded itself into his right knee.


They rush home and afraid they would both get into trouble Don put Matt to bed and told him just to stay in bed and he would be fine. They did not bother to clean the wound or anything. Remember, they are invincible. Their Mom comes home after a 12 hour shift at the hospital where she is an orthopedic nurse and finds Matt lying in bed in pain. She pulls the covers back and finds a bloody mess of what is suppose to be a knee and rushes him to the hospital. Now many years later he still wakes up with knee pain when the weather gets cold or he has over done it the day before. Applying Freeze It Gel to the knee before getting out of bed in the morning would help to relieve the stiffness that developed over night.


Winning a years supply of Freeze It Gel would give him the ability to keep a tube of Freeze It at work, in the car, next to the bed and any where else he sits. Sometimes he has issues with getting up when he has been sitting in one spot too long. He could also use it before bed to help with the stiffness during the night. I could also use Freeze It on sore muscles after painting all weekend and on my hip joint that aches from a car accident.
