Ways to help painful knees at night

I looked up some old-timey remedies. If they didn't kill you first, they might help your knees:

1 oz. oil of wintergreen
3 oz. chloroform
12 oz. rubbing alcohol

Rub on knees. (Or maybe just sniff the chloroform and you won't notice your knees)

Or there's:

Mix the juice of three lemons and 3 tbs. Epsom salts in one pint of water.
Take one tbsp. morning and night.

The Epsom salts would have you running to the bathroom. I don't think that would help your knees.

This sounds like a good 'un:

Skunk cabbage.

Uh, no......
