Abstract
A composition containing capsaicin together with another ingredient to neutralize the discomfort resulting from the application of capsaicin to the skin can be used to treat many types of discomforts, including arthritis pain, hemorrhoid pain and itching, and poison ivy itching, without the discomfort normally associated with the topical application of capsaicin.
