Voltaren Emulgel Back & Muscle Pain relieves pain and reduces inflammation. It targets local pain relief and swelling (inflammation) in the back & muscle. In addition, the gel relieves pain in joints, sprains, strains and as well as minor sports injuries.
Voltaren Emulgel Back & Muscle Pain is formulated for rubbing into the skin to relieve acute pain affecting the joints and muscles. The active substance, diclofenac diethylamine, belongs to the group of medicines called non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) that work by blocking the production of particular substances, called prostaglandins, which are involved in the development of pain and inflammation.
Usual dose:

• Use no more than is required for the shortest period of time needed. The gel should not be used for more than 7 days for muscle and joint injuries unless recommended by a doctor. Talk to your doctor if your condition does not improve within 7 days, or if it gets worse.
