The cream is not going to penetrate well, unless it is compounded with a special transdermal gel. If your lidocaine was packaged commercially, those vehicles are typically NOT going to work, they are for skin pain only, and won't go deeper.
Also where you apply it is important. Don't put it where you feel the pain, put it over the nerve distribution on the instep. That is far more efficient for pain relief.
