I’ve heard lidocaine patches help with numbing a certain area- I have loads of pain in my joints but I'm just now learning about these. Have you tried them and do they work?

@Pippadog My friend once gave me some and they were rubbish at controlling hip/back pain. I prefer CuraHeat "belts"they are amazingly good at keeping muscle spasms under control.

Hey @Emmajane! How are you feeling today?

Thank you for starting this discussion today! I think it is a very interesting topic we can discuss together. I will ask some members what they think about lidocaine patches and if they have used them before.

Hey everyone! How are you feeling today?

Do you use lidocaine patches? What do you think about it? How do you deal with joint pain?

Take care,

Polina from the Carenity team
