Salonpas Lidocaine Plus Pain Relieving Cream, 3 Ounce Tube

For some time now, I have suffered from sharp, throbbing, electric-like tingling neuropathic pain in my hands which would wake me out of a deep sleep many times per night. The pain starts at the base of my thumbs and then extends up into the thumb and fingers. Neither prescribed nor over the counter pain pills relieved the pain; a heating pad did not help; wearing compression copper-embedded gloves at night helped for awhile until the pain became more severe; applying a massage gun into the palm of my hands gave only momentary relief. I found an unopened 4 year tube of this stuff buried in a bathroom drawer and tried it, and surprisingly it worked and has continued to work nightly for about a week. It seems to last about four hours, at which time the pain returns and wakes me up and another application gets me a second four hours of sleep. Just bought a fresh new tube and am keeping my fingers crossed. Literally!

Only this combination of drugs relieved my foot pain and it was hard finding it anywhere else except Amazon. Most products are just lidocaine but this product has benzoyl alcohol as well which relieves my pain. Great product

My mom uses this for her RA. She has found this product to be more effective for her than others she's tried. It's not messy or greasy and the smell isn't as strong or medicinal as others.

This so important when you have arthritis - making it doable to apply. The roll on is also great, so you do not have to get your hands involved. I highly recommend this. 🌟

Item as described. Would purchase again

Good

I have arthritis and often experience shoulder pain at night. Using SalonPas at night before bed takes away enough of the pain to allow me to fall asleep easily. It works for me.

What a waste of product and money. Did not know it couldn't be returned. I am a fan of the patch as it starts to work immediately. This cream has zero effect. I feel nothing working. I compared ingredients once I received and absolutely nothing other than the lidocaine was the same. So basically if you're looking for Lidocaine pick the cheapest brand you can find. Otherwise you're paying for the Salonpas name.
