60Pcs Knee Pain Relief Patches Kit, Pain Relief Patch for Knee, Wormwood Herbal Knee Patches for Arthritis, Relieves Muscle Soreness in Knee, Neck, Shoulder

I ordered these patches to use for temporary relief from severe pain in my knees at night - arthritis. I am very pleased with them.The patches use the Chinese principle of moxibustion or 'burning the pain away' and are basically an updated version of a folk remedy.One box contains 52 horseshoe shaped patches; the treatment is to apply one to each knee, and their shape makes it easy to find the exact sore spot.They contain two herbs - ginger and artemisia, or wormwood. The ginger is hot; the wormwood is bitter and they do create intense heat as the herbs penetrate and stretch muscles, ease pain and relieve stiffness.I leave the patch in place until morning but take them off before a shower or bath as the hot water increases the heating effect of the patch. Wow! I personally do not find them hard to remove from the skin using a fingernail.On the negative side they are fiddly to detach from the backing sheet which is not ideal if you have arthritis, nor if you are visually disabled like me. A tab or something would be a good refinement.

good quality

Does a very good jod of alleviating pain & discomfort. I use these on my back. Highly recommended.

I felt at first these helped my knee . Easy to put on and pull off. However after using one for about 4 or 5 days I had a bad skin rash, which took a long time to go away. I know my skin is fairly sensitive so may not affect others. Sadly I had to stop using them. They smell very nice by the way.

I've used a similar product in the past and it seemed to work well for me by alleviating my knee pain, sticking and easy to peel off on my knees.However, the reverse is the case with this particular product, as it doesn't stick well on my knees and has no positive effect in alleviating my pain.

I was really surprised how well these patches work, easy to put on and stay in place all day. Will be buying more when needed.

I’m on the list for knee replacement surgery and every step is painful. I can’t take anti inflammatory meds and I hate how small my world is becoming.These have been a game changer for me. With the slight effect of a support bandage, along with the warming effect and whatever the substance is on the patch, it makes walking a couple of miles bearable.

I have been using similar patches for nearly a year now and always find them of invaluable help with my knee pain. Unfortunately, these particular patches have within 3 days caused me severe discomfort, pain and a rash which has resulted in me having to return the remaining patches for a refund.
