Welcome to NeuroTalk:
I wonder about Lidoderm patches?
They cannot be applied to skin that is damaged or open.
But you could try them just above the burn on intact skin along the spine. Might work.
Once the skin is closed over the burn, you could apply them there.
Some of the posters at our RSD forum get Lidocaine IV infusions.
One of our posters here, Malawigirl gets them too. Typically you have to be in a hospital for them. And they don't work for everyone. But when they do work, there can be substantial relief. This wears off over days, or weeks, and then is redone. I think alot depends on what kind of damage you have.
You can ask your doctor about it.
