Guest guest Posted November 5, 2010 Report Share Posted November 5, 2010 Yesterday it poured and I was in agonizing pain- really the worst pain of my life, I thought I was going to go insane from agony. Well, I found something that helped (besides the emergency Hydrocodone that I took, which was leftover from when I got my root canal) Lidoderm Patches. They stick to your hands and really help wtih pain on the worst days. You have to use a good scissor to cut them to fit your hands, cut slits into them so you could move your fingers. But if you haven't used them, ask your dr to try them. They work GREAT. They stay on for twelve hours, then off for twelve hours. And it takes about an hour for them to start really working- but when they do kick in, they REALLY help. Just a tip. I hope it helps people who have bad hand pain.
