Perfect for post-surgery pain along the ribs or diaphragm!
Had an arthroscopic operation on my lung -- the entry points are between several ribs, where there are many nerves and connective tissue.<br /><br />These lidocaine strips are amazingly helpful.  The combat the tightness, which sometimes seems excruciating, which you may feel on one or another horizonal plane across your chest area.  Experiment with the stretchiness because you might feel better applying it without a stretch.<br /><br />I tried to use roll-on lidocane and it didn't make a dent in the pain.  The strips were between 90 and 100% effective across the entire band of pain, even if not covering the whole horizontal area.<br /><br />I am just SO glad I tried these.
