Guest guest Posted July 6, 2005 Report Share Posted July 6, 2005 Lee & Del, I read your posts about the shoulder pain you suffer so. Just wanted to share what my husband uses for his degenerative R/A. There called "(Lidoderm Lidocain Patch 5%)". They are a perscription. Jim gets them from his orthopedic surgeon. You just peel off the back and stick it on to the area that hurts. You can leave them on for 12 hours at a time. I've even used one on my hip that bothers me and it did relieve the pain. My husband would rather use the patch than the anti-inflamatory drugs, especially since so many of them now have other serious side affects. Hope this info helps..
