Like many, I am desperate and have read enough comments about castor oil giving relief that I have decided to try it. For those of who have used it and gotten relief how do you apply it and keep it on? Rub it in and cover with sock? If you haven't used it or have and haven't gotten relief, those kind of replies won't help me so please leave the comments open for those who have. Thanks.
