AFTER checking the above, try soaking a few chiles, half a cup of
St. Johnswort (from the herb store) and half a cup or more of rosemary
(likewise--it's MUCH cheaper in bulk) in just enough light mineral oil
or baby oil to cover them plus 1/4" or so.  Keep the jar covered and
in a warm place while soaking, and soak for two weeks, shaking well
once or twice a day.  Strain the oil through a tea towel, squeezing
out all you can, and use.  It's good on bruises, too.
