My Dr. has prescribed capsaicin spray to spray into the nostril on my CH (right) side at the onset of a CH.
I asked what it was supposed to do. He told me that the brain can only comprehend one pain at a time. The theory being
that if intoduced after a CH starts, the brain will ignore CH and concentrate on this. Hopefully it will be less pain and a
shorter duration. The script is 0.25% SOL. Anyone have experience with this or any knowledge of it? Thanks for your time.
