Dr. Scholl's Plantar Fasciitis Pain Patches, with Lidocaine & Menthol, 8 ct

Very soft , easy to cut , fits on the foot, absorbs the shock. I use it at night though since I don't really move around a lot. During the day might be a challenge because it slips. Good for arch support.

Hands down the best pain patches around, especially for plantar fasciitis but even for calf pain. Love them. I keep them handy especially for my son's sports ailments.

I purchased these patches hoping for consistent pain relief, but the results were underwhelming. The hydrogel layer felt comfortable at first, but the effect faded quickly—far from the long-lasting support advertised. After about an hour, the cooling sensation disappeared and the discomfort in my heel returned as if I wasn’t wearing anything at all. The biggest problem was the adhesion. Even on clean, dry skin, the patches started peeling at the edges within a short time. By mid-day they had shifted out of place, which completely defeats the purpose of a product meant to stay aligned with the plantar area. I tried using them during normal daily activities, and the movement only made things worse. I also expected the lidocaine and menthol combination to provide noticeable relief, but the effect was extremely mild. It offered a brief numbing sensation that didn’t penetrate deeply enough to address real plantar pain. For anyone dealing with consistent foot strain, this level of performance simply isn’t enough. Overall, these patches didn’t deliver meaningful support or stability. Between the weak adhesion and minimal pain relief, they fell short of my expectations. I would not rely on them for daily use.

I've been dealing with plantar fasciitis for years and the trick is to not give up, but try things until you find what works or at least helps for you. For me these patches fit right onto my arch, where I still have pain and I put them on at night and they do wonders. I get the patches are hard to keep in place when walking, so you can use roll on Dr. Scholls for daytime or find some wrapping to hold them in place. There is something about the delivery of the concentration of medication in the patches that takes it next level.

Decent for the foot , unfortunately it rolls around and rolls up as you walk on it making it hard to keep in place on the bottom of your foot .. just not enough stick and it's a bit thin compared to the other brand I used

Didn't expect to feel real pain relief, but i did. I have had pain from Plantar F for over a month. This didn't cure it, didn't make it completely painless.. but gave real relief for hours. The patches are a little awkward feeling, maybe even creepy, at first.. like walking on a water pad.. but when you get over it, the relief was there. Today, I didn't wear one, wearing high heels, and wish i had one to put on for relief.

This helped the first day my husband used them. He has been unable to stand without pain and he has been able to have a whole day standing at work since he started using them.

Really good for pain but gave it only 4 stars bc it doesn’t stick very well in the heel area while the rest of the patch does. It could have been user error? I don’t think so but having to adjust it while walking bc its slipping around not fun

Funktionieren über Nacht für mich wirklich gut.

Took so long to arrive. No relief and the patches did not stick.
