Extra Strength Hua Tuo Medicated Patch (5 Patches Per Box) (6 Boxes) (Solstice)

I had injured my back as a CNA certified nurse and I did not want to take them pills. And I’m a walker so when I walk out would hurt I would last good 15-30 minutes tops and then I have to sit down prop pillows behind my back to get that spot. It just was uncomfortableThey gave me is addictive and I want it in my system. One of my patients that I was taken care of. Had these patches he had like four boxes and I used to pads out of that box and put it down below my back and in the middle of my back when I tell you five minutes in I was able to walk after shift was ending. I was able to walk 3 miles. I kept it on my bank for four days when I tell you, I’ll walk those four days 3 miles and start seeing my blood pressure go down my weight going down. I couldn’t believe it if you get in the shower with it is gone it’s overweight, but if you wash up or if you do shower, don’t wet your back if you wanna keep it on as long as I kept it on was four days not getting my backward game changer that’s all I can say.🙌🏾🙂‍↔️ easy to use a strong scent, but it’s herbal yes it is strong but useful durable, flexible and then adhesive if you’re allergic, you gonna itch for a minute and use it on my back my knees, my shoulder, my ankle

I could not wait to try these. I am a Salanpas user, and I find the size that is most available too small. When I saw the dimentions and ingredients on these, I was super excited. I get breakthrough pain and spasms from dystonia. It is tough because as a middle aged person, I want to remain active, so I cannot have higher doses of the control medications, and I also cannot let the spasms get too bad or I will have other physical problems. The salanpas are great, but I had to put two for every spasm area. These are MUCH better!!! The ingerdients considered active are nearly the same, but additional ingrdients are different, and much more helpful. I had a super stiff day with spasms, so I put three on top, middle and lower spots of my right side. It took about 30 minutes to start feeling the patches starting to work. The fabric is of a much nicer quality - more of a canvas - and there are breathing holes in it. This is important for people who may be allergic to adherents as I am. The breathing holes alow for the skin to not get sweaty from the product which opens the poors and creats a burn. I cannot leave the salanpas on for more than an hour or I burn. Kinesiology tape burns me to blisters in less than two hours. So, to see the holes made me smile. There is no itching. This product made the spasms calm and pain lessen. This is no cure, no lidocane patch, or any strong product for full relieve of serious issues like dystonia, however, from the control it gives me over breakthrough pain on bad days, I imagine that a lesser pain from a sprain, bruise, overused muscle or something less severe (not requiring medical attention and medication) this would be a great help. I prefer them over salanpas. They are also a beige verses the white which is awkward on your neck no matter the color of your skin. It looks more like a cloth flex bandaide to give you an idea of color. This would be less noticable than stark white. The only con I can mention is that this is an herbal patch, and it smells like one. I don't mind the odor, but you wouldn't want to slap these on for a first date, or to go to church. It can be smelled by someone sitting next to you for sure, especially if they are freshly applied, and as they are warming up. If anyone knows your pain and discomfort, they won't mind the oder...it isn't super strong, like a Bengay or like product, but it is definately there when you open the little ziplock bag the patches are enclosed inside of. Update: I had fallen asleep with one of these patches on my back, and one on my leg. I heat up while I am sleeping. I awoke with the patches itching. When I removed both patches, they were red and raised. I do not know if it was the adhesive or the ingredients of the plaster. Since that episode, I cannot put these patches on my body without a big red rectangle welts appearing where the patch once was. The welts will remain for 3 to 5 days. The pain is helped, but the welt is not healthy looking. I have discontinued using them. I am sad about this side-effect.

I have used these patches, mostly on my lower back for years. I have also used them on my mid back and sore knees. They are very effective at providing moderate pain relief and I always sleep better with a patch on. The only con is application. It's like a large bandage and you have to be careful when peeling it off its backing that it doesn't fold in on itself. But the more you apply them, the easier it gets. Ɓ

I use these for my bad back and they really do seem to relieve the pain and swelling.

The effect is very good, but it is recommended to buy it at Chinatown as it will be much cheaper.

Been using these for years my go to for pain

This plaster worked for my piriformis issue and sciatica. I just used 1/4 piece and was able to sleep without pain. It does have a little medicated herbal smell but it is not overwhelming. It stayed on for about a week. When I finally peeled it off, there was a little bumpy rash but I have sensitive skin and latex allergy so not surprising. That is one reason I only used 1/4 of a sheet.

Been using these for 20 years. Half my life. Get's the job done for taking pain away!

The item was as described. Well packaged and delivered promptly. Will definitely use this vendor again. Thank you

Brilliant product. Can't buy it in Australia any more. Really quick delivery.
