Really, I have found the medical profession has no clue as to where to put the Lidoderm patches. Even the drug company does not help. I asked a salesperson at a CE event and she said nope.. they don't recommend placement.!
If you know you have back issues, and some sciatic compression, I'd put them only on your back...based on your test results of where the compression is. Don't worry about the end points of pain. Those spots, are really referred pain sites, and the source is most likely higher up, along the spine.
