"I had terrible back pain for three weeks and tried almost everything to relieve the pain. Someone recommended Salonpas and in one night, it relieved my pain. It did cause a very itchy reaction, but it was worth it because I am now pain-free!"

"I used the Salonpas patch for back pain, so I forgot to take it off while I slept. When I woke up, my equilibrium was so severe I could barely walk. (I'm scared.) The first thing I thought of was my two medications I take. I researched what Salonpas interacts with, but to my relief, they were not listed. So what happened? I don't know... But for one thing, they did the job."

"I've never had a skin allergy in my life-until I slapped a piece of Salonpas on my shoulder. Upon the first removal, I had bumpy, raised skin for five days. I put a steroidal cream on the area to no avail. Not so much itching as just annoying bumpy, raised skin."
