Icy Hot Extra Strength, Medicated Patch, Back & Large Areas 5 ea Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Several years ago, I had a serious back sprain that landed me in the ER--and then confined to a recliner for 10 days. I was in excruciating pain and was on pain killers.
Ever since then, I seem susceptible to back sprains that can sometimes leave me out of commission for almost a week. These Icy Hot patches helped me with me first back injury, but now I use them anytime I get a sprain. They provide noticeable relief--at first feeling cool to numb the pain (methol) and then feeling hot which feels relaxing.
These flexible patches are breathable, so you don't have to worry about them getting sweaty especially in hot temperatures. They stay on for a long time and sometimes, I forget I have them on!
The package says that each Icy Hot Patch works up to 8 hours, but I've had mine on for 12 or longer. They also recommend that you don't use more than 4 times a day.
In addition to muscle strains, sprains and spasms, these patches are also good for:
*Bursitis
*Tendonitis
*Arthritis
*Bruises
The active ingredient is menthol, so do know that it has that "Ben Gay" type of smell.
In each box, there are 5 large patches in a re-sealable pouch. And, because these particular patches are larger, you can use them for other large areas BESIDE the back, such as thighs and calfs.
Icy Hot Patches provide such relief (combined with ibuprofen!) and I always make sure we have a few on hand, just in case. Highly recommended!
