I wouldn't want to be without these patches.
I cut them into 2" strips.
Put them across my neck, and low back.
I re-wet them, with warm water sometimes, sometimes before i put them on. It gets the meds flowing faster. And, they stick better.

Sometimes, I cut them longways, and put them down my forearm, while I type, or around my wrist. For the forearm TOS Carpel tunnel pain.
Life Savers!
If I go food shopping and hafto lift, or walk, my low back. On my neck, they'll actually prevent the tightness that causes headaches, and pain down the arm.
And, as I've said.

Don't underestimate Lidocaine or Flector patches.

Ironically, I've NEVER used an entire patch, all in one spot.
