Amazon Basic CareMedicated Cold Hot 5% Menthol Patch, 7.87” x 3.93”, 15-Count Box (Previously HealthWise)

I wasn’t planning on fighting for my life that Tuesday evening—but fate had other plans. One wrong neck turn while fluffing a pillow, and BOOM. I was immobilized. Trapped on the couch, unable to look left, right, or emotionally invest in episode 6 of the new murder docuseries without whimpering like a Victorian widow.Enter: the unsung heroes of Amazon Basic Care—the medicated Cold/Hot pads.They arrived like a cavalry of peppermint-scented angels. I slapped one on with the desperation of someone who really needed to know if the butler did it, and let me tell you—it was instant drama-turned-relief. A beautiful chemical tingle spread across my neck like icy justice. Then came the warmth. A gentle heat that felt like a hug from a microwave-wielding grandma.I was back in the game.By episode 7, I could rotate my head. By episode 8, I was emotionally available again. These things didn’t just numb the pain—they resurrected me from my couch-bound grave and gave me the strength to finish an entire season with snacks balanced on my lap and dignity semi-intact.Final verdict: If you're one crick in the neck away from emotional collapse during your next Netflix binge, get these. Medicated magic

These have a varying satisfactory history with me this all depends on the weather, the temperature how much you sweat, where you are putting the pad and more. If you can use medical tape to hold these in place because they can roll off or become too mushy to work properly. It also depends on where you put these pads (and, oh btw you don't want to apply this and then touch sensitive areas like you eyes or any others sensitive area before you wash your hands. Wash first and diligently before anywhere else. I use them on my neck, arms, legs chest and back. They are NOT perfect for everyone but they do provide some pain relief for me.These have a varying satisfactory history with me this all depends on the weather, the temperature how much you sweat, where you are putting the pad and more.

There isn't one perfect tool which will work on everyone. Some may need physical therapy and/or pain relief meds and/or wraps/support devices. I am trying the icy hot roll on product to be more targeting to locations of pain. There are advantages to using the pads and advantages to using the roll on. The pads don't transfer the medication to clothing as the roll on will but when the medication wears off from the pads you just peal it off and wash the area well. There is nothing to throw away with the roll on. The pads require to be kept in a sealed bag so they don't all activate in air and become useless when needed so the roll on gains traction over the pads for transport and use. Having said all that, again, its all personal choice. You might need to try them all and decide if you want/need increased/decreased medical strength of one over the other or which chemical is used for one or the other. Some may have negative reaction to one over the other. You might even need to speak to your physician before you try any of these pads/roll one for me its mostly a question of how bad the pain is on a given day, what activities I will be involved in, the weather and other factors on a daily basis. I will say this again, WATCH WHAT YOU TOCH AFTER HANDLING ANY OF THESE ITEMS AS THEY CAN CAUSE LOCALIZED MEDICAL ISSUES (LIKE GROIN) OR WORSE IF YOU TOUCH ANYWHERE NEAR EYES.

These feel so good on my back. They stick really well. I cut mine in half before use so I can apply it myself.

These parches work great for back pain.

Excellent price! Just as good as icy hot patches

It won't stay on your skin but while it's on your skin it eases the pain.

Got rid of my aches.

Definitely purchasing this again. The pain relief it gives compared to the icey hot gel is ridiculous crazy. Plus you don’t have the smell of the gel.Love this item
