I just saw the lyme doc and was given a poultice called Anti-phlogistine for my Achilles tendon pain (caused by levaquin).

All the instructions on the label are in German and it smells awful (my fragrance-sensitivity isn't happy).

My doc said to put it on and wrap it with a medical bandage (like an Ace bandage).

This is a thick, sticky poultice. Should I put it on my leg, then wrap it in cotton gauze before the Ace bandage or something like that?

Does anyone know?

Thanks. I saw that, but how do you secure the cotton? What kind do you use?

I need to sleep with the thing on and I have no idea how to keep it in place.
