How Often?
You can do it twice a day for 3-4 days (only if you are able to take the burning sensation caused by cayenne pepper).
How Does It Work?
Cayenne pepper contains a substance known as capsaicin. It almost works like a pain killer. In fact, the hotness of cayenne pepper is due to capsaicin.
What Capsaicin Does
Capsaicin works by depleting a particular chemical that is responsible for supplying pain-signals to your brain. It basically reduces pain sensations. Yes, that is why this substance is also used in certain pain-killer creams.
