I was told no as well (Guelph). BTW, you might want to try ice rather than heat on your knee. If it's inflamed, heat will make it worse. I hate applying ice since I'm almost always cold, but it works a treat!

I was told by Humber that yes we can use voltaren topical cream. I use it on my knee when it acts up. Perhaps we should be asking our surgeons. I dont use it daily and sometimes not even weekly.. and the amount of anti inflamitory in it is less absorbed than pill form.
