To relieve pain, plasters have the same actions and the same ingredients as oils and ointments. Plasters have the advantage of diffusing the active ingredients, slowly, under the action of the heat of the skin. Their therapeutic action is more powerful than that of oils and ointments.
In my clinical experience, of all the commercial plasters, it is the most effective in relieving pain. It is very red-hot. However, the feeling of warmth must be pleasant, otherwise it must be removed. Make the skin breathe as long as possible to avoid irritating it between two applications. If itching, irritation or heat rash appears, remove the patch and wait for the skin to heal before applying another. Be careful in the use of this plaster and you will be very satisfied.
