4% Lidocaine Maximum Strength Pain Relief Kinesiology Tape - Relieves Back, Joints and Muscle Pains - Superior Sticking, Aluminum-Free Water Resistant, and USA Made - 2" x 10" Strips

These really work. I was surprised. They don't stink, they aren't messy, and they are pretty good at staying where you put them. They can roll a little if you move around a lot, especially if that area rubs against heavy clothing or if you wear them in the bed. I was disappointed that the price increased (but what prices haven't increased lately?). These really do the job. I hated trying to open the original packaging, but now they come in an easy to open zip bag. They are easy to apply. And they are a good size to go on your arms, knees, shoulders.

I used this item frequently two or three years ago and I was very pleased. However this purchase has not been anywhere close to the previous product. The ends curl up, and basically roll off my skin. I have used five of them and only one has stayed in place. I guess it is possible that my skin has changed due to changes in medication. Don’t know, I just would not recommend them at this time. Too bad, I really was happy with previous purchases.

I went between giving a 4 or 3, I love that these do not have any strong scents and they do work, but the reason for my rating is because they HURT peeling them off. I mean I’m glad they have such good adhesive cause I hate it when something sticks and the ends start rolling up. So I may end up cutting them in shorter pieces and then maybe it we’ll be more tolerable taking them off.

I like that these curve easily over a knee or other difficult areas. Strips can be trimmed if you don’t need the entire piece.

I was so excited to see this item, it was exactly what I was looking for. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed. I use other lidocaine products so I know how it should feel. I got none of the numbness or muscle relief from this. Additionally, when you remove it sticky residue is left behind. 3 showers and I still couldn't get rid of it. I do not recommend unless you want to pay for something that looks like it will help.

These strips do not stay on 12 hours like the larger pads. I used to cut the thicker larger pads to use on my back and thought these would be better for me. But they reason I purchase and recommended Re-lieve brand to friends is because they stick and stay on oily skin. These do not. They are thin and more flexible but don't feel they have the same pain relief. To thin to stay on my skin type. For $24 I expected them to stay on as long as the larger non-flexible version.

The best quality pain relief tape I have used. I have tried many of the tape and patches for pain. These have lidocaine 4%, which is very helpful in pain relief. They also have the best sticking quality, and they remove without hurting your skin. You can cut the tape to the size you need.

Really helps.
