WELMATE 4% Lidocaine Pain Relief Patches Maximum Strength, 15 Count - Fast Acting 12 Hour Relief for Back, Neck, Shoulder, Knee - Numbing Patch for Adults, Odor Free, Flexible Adhesive, 3.9" x 5.5"

Bought these based on price and I am totally satisfied. Works as well as Salonpas and other 4% Lidocaine brands, including store brand generics. Adhesion has been excellent. I totally recommend. FOLLOW UP (12/10/23) - Frustration with Adhesive Backing I am on my second box of 30. While I am still very satisfied with the effectiveness and convenience of these pads, I am frustrated by product inconsistency. Specifically, the plastic backing is sometimes difficult to remove, the adhesive is gooey and sticky, and as I peel the backing, the pad tends to fold in on itself and/or gets stretched out. This occurred on a few of the pads in the first box I bought, but most were fine. As I begin to use the second box, it has occurred on nearly every pad. This is frustrating and I have occasionally had to throw out a pad, or snip off a portion that had folded over and became unusable. As I read back over reviews, I have noticed that a lot of people have had this experience as well. That is disappointing. I will be reaching out to Wellspring, if they do not respond in this forum. 4/10/24 FOLLOW UP I did follow up with Wellspring at their number on the box. They were very responsive and sent me a new box of 30. I appreciate their responsiveness. Between the box of 30 I had just started using, and the box they sent me, I have had very few pads that peeled smoothly as designed. Most were sticky and stretched out as I tried to peel and apply them to my knee and ankle. I often cut the pad in half because I do not need a complete 3.9"x5.5" pad in either area. Either way, when applying the pad it tends to stretch from 1.5 to 2 times its length. I just put a complete 3.9x5.5 on my knee. Final size when applied was 2.9"x12". Unfortunately, I suspect, from both experience and others' reviews, that most of the other similar sized and priced pads sold here on Amazon are likely to have the same problem. Good pain relief but unreliable application and adhesion.

They work well but have a hard time sticking to the skin.

Very good deal when compared to most sources. We use these for many types of pain, especially back and shoulder pain.

I recently tried these after the other brand continued to get worse and worse quality and not sticking. These are pretty good. They adhere pretty well and are decent size but are a bit smaller than the clear backing sometimes. Sometimes leaves a slight residue, not a problem, only if you wear it overnight and peel it off, and it feels slightly tacky, not white or anything. These do not smell like medication, these are plain. Have not irritated my sensitive skin. It is Spring/Summer. Never wear more than 2 patches at the same time. It can cause bad things like Arrhythmias. You can cut into smaller pieces or skinny strip for certain areas. Like ball of foot, thumb knuckle or neck area… split up 1 patch in different areas, wear overnight, take off in morning.

I used these for everything achy/pain related that I can, whether it is a sore back or even sadly a sunburn on the tops of my feet that took forever to heal. It helped me get through that and allowed me to wear shoes during that time, as it provided pain relief and a cushion. The 4% Lidocaine Numbing Patch has proven to be a welcome addition to my pain relief toolkit. With its maximum strength formula, it's been effective in alleviating aches and pains, particularly in the back and neck areas. The convenience of the patch format is a definite plus. Application is straightforward—simply peel and adhere the patch to the affected area. The adhesive is strong enough to stay in place without causing discomfort, even during movement. The numbing effect kicks in relatively quickly, providing noticeable relief within a short period of time. This is especially helpful when dealing with persistent discomfort that can affect daily activities. I found the patch to be particularly useful for managing muscle soreness after workouts or addressing tension-related pain. The packaging includes clear instructions, making it easy to use the product safely and effectively. It's also great to see that the patches are individually wrapped, which helps maintain their potency and ensures they're ready for use whenever needed. While the 4% Lidocaine Numbing Patch is effective, it's worth noting that for some people with sensitive skin, there might be a slight sensation or redness around the application area. However, this is generally temporary and fades away quickly.

The first time I purchased these, I was very satisfied with the quality and value. However, the second purchase was a disappointment. The pads were sticky on both sides. This meant they stuck to my clothing and peeled right off. Total waste! I can't chance getting another batch like this as expensive as this can get having to buy more.

These work just as well as other brands and adhere as equally too. I can say I’ve tried several brands so this is both for quality and quantity. I had a lower spinal fusion recently and I use these daily as I am only 5 months out and these make sleeping and occasionally daytime more comfortable when necessary. I’ve read a few reviews where people said they didn’t adhere well and in my personal experience with all these patches and all brands with excessive rolling or with your clothing rubbing overtime the patch will come off. Let’s face it these medication patches people not this isn’t duct tape! That being said I have woke with them on my back every morning in place. I will only be buying these if that doesn’t say anything? Now if I’m going to work I would recommend using some tape around the edges. If your pants or shirt or strap of any kind is going to rub against it constantly it is going to come up and off if you don’t. Common sense goes a long way. But seriously look no further, great product!

I have been using Sumifum Lidocaine pain relief gel! patches for 2 years. They come 40 in brox @ $33.99 so I decided to try these @ 8Welmat for 40 @ $38.95. Don't like these as well as the Sumifun. They don't stick as well and these are not as effective in relieving pain. I 5Have arthritis inmy knee and Sciatica in entire leg and foot for about a year. When I put both brands on I take a knee high, cut the toe part off a d have to sliit the sides to wear onto to keep both on. I really think the Sumifum are are better but a little more pricey. Thank God my insurance has approved a stimulator for me that will helpt with my lower back pain I've had 43 years. Better to stick with what works for you just save money. Definitely think the Sumifun works great especially on my back. They stay stuck fot 24 hours.
