buying the large patches for lower back muscles, when I need one for my shoulder I just cut a large patch in half. It doesn't leave any residue on clothes or skin. Patch stays in place on body. Some smell of course but I don't notice it after a couple of minutes. For sore, over used muscles it relieves the pain and tightness.

I am 75, still in good health and physical condition, and tend to over exert more than I probably should. Most often I get back and hip aches when I do activities out of the ordinary and use different muscles. I am used to lifting heavy things, but most recently, I spent a day digging out weeds from a garden area and planting new bushes. I was bent over for a period of time in doing this. The next day, my back and hips ached and almost locked when I sat down for a while for dinner. Using one of these patches relieved the pain quickly and I was able to get done things I needed to do. A couple of time, I had sciatic nerve pain and got sharp pains in my back an hips. This patch help so very much to relieve the pain allowing me to carry on with my day. In the past, I have used a few different similar patches, but I like this one the best. The size is large enough to cover my entire lower back or can be applied to the side for hip pain. Once this patch is applied, the pain is totally gone within a few minutes. It feels cold when first applied, and then warms up although it's not a warmth I have been aware of. Most important to me is the pain stops and my activities are not limited. I have worn this patch all day and through the night. The next day the pain is still gone even after I take the patch off. I know pain is our body's way of telling us to slow down, but at my age, I just don't have time to do anything slower, and won't allow aches or pains to limit my activity. I would definitely recommend these patches as they: 1) cover a large areas 2) relieve muscle, back, and hip pain in just a couple of minutes 3) stay on all day and through the night UPDATE 09/11/22: When I got up today, I had a sporadic stabbing pain in my right upper hip. Although it did ache a bit, it was nothing I couldn't handle. By the afternoon the ache was worse and the stabbing pain more often. I was talking to my husband and he asked my why I was standing weird, so I told him about the pain. He reminded me of these patches, which I hadn't thought of. He put one of the patches on the aching part of my back, and the pain was gone almost instantly - literarily. I should have thought to use one of these patches sooner instead of going through most of the day in pain. These things really do work. I hope this review was helpful for you.

The icy hot works very well

I use these on my ribs when they are hurting. The are cooking at first and the. Provide pain relief. I put these on for long car rides, plane rides, or at night when I have been super active during the day.

Noöne warned me that at room temperature this feels mighty cold when first being applied to the lower back. I may take advantage of the resealable pouch by heating up some water, then putting the (resealed) pouch in the water to pre-warm them. For those of you with a little more back hair, I might recommend shaving the area before application, otherwise removal may be a bit dramatic. The application/removal part is only secondary. The primary reason to get these was for some lower-back pain relief. I wasn't quite sure how effective they would be, but was surprised that it did live up to the claims and allowed my back muscles to relax so I could finally move around again. The large size ensured good coverage beyond just the troublesome area. It stayed in place and was mess-free. I can't think of any REAL cons to this product, and, in fact, am adding another package to my cart. I'll probably store it in one of my cars as I love to road trip but my back doesn't love the seat in my car, and sometimes after just 2hrs of driving, getting out of the car is a real hassle.

good product

Excelente muy bueno para el Dolor

This patch works for thousands of people, but not for me. I get no relief once applied. Applying it is really tricky for 1 person if it need to go your side, back, etc. The patch easily folds over and sticks to itself. A real drag.

Nur gut für mich

Ok

Provides fast relief

work great
