I HAVE A HERNIATED DISK IN MY LOWER BACK THAT KILLS ME OFTEN (GOTTA GET TO THE CHIROPRACTOR) ... PURCHASED THESE, PUT ONE ON AND I HAD INSTANT AND IMMEDIATE RELIEF (THANK GOD!!) ... THESE PATCHES ARE FANTASTIC, NO STRONG SMELL, COLD-WARM SENSATIONS THAT HIT THE PAIN AREA QUICKLY AND THAT'S COMING FROM SOMEONE THAT HAS MAJOR LOWER BACK PAIN DUE TO MY HERINATED DISK SO I CAN TELL YOU FROM EXPERIENCE THAT THE BURN FROM THESE PATCHES IS VERY COMFORTING, EASES THE PAIN QUICKLY AND ALLOWS YOU TO FUNCTION, BEND AND MOVE AROUND FREELY. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THESE AND I WILL DEFINATELY BE PURCHASING THEM REGULARLY FOR SURE (OR AT LEAST UNTIL AFTER I'VE GONE TO THE CHIROPRACTOR!!); BUT WILL CERTAINLY CONTINUE TO KEEP THESE ON HAND FOR ANY OTHER TYPE OF MUSCLE DISCOMFORT OR JOINT PAIN!! GET THEM -- THESE REALLY WORK!! --

I've used this twice. Once I squated wrong and consequently herniated a disc. The day I did this I got the patch used it once and it numbed the pain. I found out later I huniated the disc. So, be careful - this can hide the warning pain. The second time I used it, sleeping in a cheap mattress for a few weeks. Was in so much pain I couldn't do anything else but mange the pain. Within a week I tried other patches, creams (even icy hot cream), products). They didn't make the pain bearable. The second I put this patch on i felt relief. It enabled me to do some stretches till I nurse myself back to health and see a chiropractor. Easy to use, sticks well, no mess, doesn't ruin clothes.

I have a spinal issues and Lupus. I have many pain issues. I have prescriptions for both lidocaine cream and patches but I like Icy Hot because it works faster and lasts longer. I do get trigger point injections but they are limited to a certain amount a year they work great too. I am never without my patches. I did try the sleeves for my leg pain and wasn’t impressed. I like the large patches, the extra large are too big and get tangled up when trying to get them on, I am clumsy with the Lupus. I have been using these for 20 years and feel I deserve Stock in the company at this point! My Prescription Lidocaine patches I could care less about but my Icy Hot Patches guard them with my life!

I have chronic back pain, and these have been a god send. They work really and stay on really well, too, although I have to say that for some reason the boxes I've bought in stores have had better adhesive than those I've bought in mass quantity from vendors on here, which is why I've given four stars instead of five. I have dry, sensitive skin, so pulling off the patches irritates my skin and can be a little painful sometimes, but that's the downside of having a large strip of adhesive on your back all day, I guess. Overall these are great and have made my quality of life a lot better, so I'd really recommend them.

I had upper back and shoulder pain that extends to my left side chest. Went to doctors, physical therapists nothing helped permanently. I started using these patches for comforting my pain almost every time I get it, in a few months my pain was gone for ever. I had te pain almost three times a week but the frewuency started to get slower until I noticed that it has been several months without using it. It saved my life really. The upper back stiffness was so bad that I was getting frustrated.

good

I bought these as a means to try to alleviate the horrible pain in both of my lower legs from some nasty shin splints (I've recently gotten into running. Word to the wise: if you have shin splints, stop running until they're healed as continuing to do so is only going to increase your healing time, do more damage, and cause you ridiculous amounts of pain.) I love that these last 8 hours so I can put them on and then forget about them for the next 8 hours. They truly are the only thing that has worked to help with the pain and, with them being so long, they stretch from just below my knee to just above my ankle thus covering the entire area I need to cover. Thank you Icy Hot! Without you I would be absolutely useless until these blasted shin splints heal.

The Icy Hot patches help me handle pain from arthritis and fibromyalgia. I have lower back pain all the time, and it occasionally becomes severe due to sacroiliac joint inflammation and lower back nerve pain related to fibromyalgia. The Icy Hot patches do not make the pain go away, but they make it bearable. The patch really does work for about 8 hours, long enough to make it through the work day. I find these patches to be a helpful, cost-effective way to deal with chronic pain.
