I have gotten a great relief from burning pain with Lidoderm and Flector patches. For areas where I can't stick a patch (like in my hair on the back of my head) I use Voltaren gel. There is also a stronger version of the Voltaren gel (I forget what it's called) that comes in liquid form, but I don't like it because it runs all over the place when I try to apply it.
The patches can be cut up and used a piece at a time. Lidoderm patches are only supposed to be used for 12 hours on and then 12 hours off, max 3 at a time.
Good luck, Sandy

Mine of course, was as a result of a surgery and resultant nerve damage.

Does anyone have any insight on this??? What does it mean....where does it go???
