"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."

"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."
