I have bilateral knee pain and the patches are very helpful in relieving the most intense pain. I have used them for several years and they are very good. The fact that I can cut them to size is helpful as it saves me money.

prescribed today for bursitis and tendonosis in butt and hp, iliopsoas area. My doctor warned me it may not work because my pain is about 2"-3" deep. When in pain I think we'll try anything. It didn't do a thing. No side effects though.

Arthuritis is my problem which extends to heels of my feet. Putting the patch on my back and a pain pill makes me good for almost all day.

My doctor prescribed this after I developed back problems following a car accident; since I broke my tailbone two years previous that's where my pain was worse. I took off after eight hours, I was extremely hot all night and had very vivid nightmares. I'm going to try again during the day and hope I don't have the nightmares again.
