They’re a lifesaver and a nice addition to anyone’s first aid. Be mindful of Lidocaine patches, while they are effective, they can cause further skin irritation with uneven use. You’ll need to read the directions for these as they are but a percentage point lower than prescription lidocaine patches, and depending on the individual, your symptoms may be less than worthy of using these for long term use. But for me, I had upper back pain in a particular area and they work well for about 3 hours of use, then kinda fade out over the day. You’re not supposed to use more than 3-4 a day, so i’d go along with that. If after a few hours pain is returning, or it’s in a different area, it’s fine to take the one you have off and cover the prior area and new area, it’s all dependent on how painful it is, for me I was experiencing a numbness and itchiness in that part of my back. The icyhot formula has always worked, but lidocaine is a perfect addition to their standard formula. I’m satisfied to say the least, and a little peeling doesn’t bother me I assure you when the pain is relieved. But with that said, the adhesive is abysmally bad. They really need to work on that. I advise that you take as many fabrics as you can off that may collide with the product. You can also use a little surgical tape to help keep it on if you have some handy. Otherwise, keep pressing.

I got a great deal. came right on time. it helps a lot with pain and aches. I recommend

Arrived quickly and safely. This is a successful repeat purchase. Certainly helped or 'covered" the mild and moderate pain. While hospitalized for another issue my nurse introduced me to this type of pain relief.

Pro: These really provide relief. Con: They don’t adhere to the back very well. It kept Rolling up, luckily it can sort of be unrolled and reapplied.

My wife appreciates these patches a lot. Non greasy, easy to take anywhere, very effective odorless and, stays put

As much as I tend to avoid writing unfavorable reviews, I want to advise those looking for pain relief that this product may not live up to expectations. I have been experiencing chronic pain, and was anxious to find a product that I believed would be helpful. I researched numerous items, and decided on these Lidocaine patches in hopes of relieving my pain. The patches, unfortunately, are very thin and flimsy, and do not readily adhere to the skin. In fact, they shifted frequently, and would lift and fold over upon themselves, leaving the painful areas untreated. Any movement easily displaced the patches, as they virtually fell off and had to be searched for beneath my clothing. They are only 4% Lidocaine, and the alleged therapeutic benefit is veritably non existent. I'm a registered nurse, and for the price this is a poor quality product. Continue reaearching, as I am, to find something better to resolve your pain. Best of luck!

I’ve tried a lot of patches for back and shoulder pain, and these are one of the stronger ones I’ve used. The lidocaine helps numb the area and takes the edge off the pain within about 20–30 minutes. The patch itself is large enough to cover most of my lower back, and it sticks well without peeling up, even if you’re moving around. The scent is noticeable when you first put it on but not overwhelming, and it fades after a while. The material is flexible and feels comfortable under clothes, though I wouldn’t recommend wearing it with tight fabrics since the edges can show. Pros: strong numbing effect, stays in place, large coverage area. Cons: a little pricey for how many you get, and the cooling sensation doesn’t last as long as I’d like. Overall, these are great if you need targeted relief for back, shoulder, or joint pain, especially when you don’t want to take more medication.

I have had some lower to middle back pain for a few weeks now that is finally starting to subside. These patches were recommended to me from my daughter and they work very well to alleviate the pain I’m having. It’s painful when I twist a certain way but no pain if i stay still.

Much needed works amazing

I liked the ease of application and comfort in position overnight.
