Topical pain relief treatments are a great temporary pain relief alternative to over-the-counter pain medication.
It is a good option for patients who cannot take pain relief medication due to a sensitive stomach. Topical pain relief is fast-acting and can be applied directly onto the targeted area, unlike other forms of pain relief.
Below we’ve listed two ingredients that are commonly found in topical pain relief treatments:
Menthol
Menthol is made from mint extracts and provides a soothing cooling sensation. It is often used to temporarily relieve minor pain from arthritis, muscle strains, backaches, and other bothersome injuries.
Point Relief® ColdSpot® gel, spray, and roll-on are fast-acting options that provide cooling temporary pain relief to treat aches, pains, and strains. This product is formulated with a higher menthol concentration than the leading brand. It contains all-natural ingredients such as menthol, arnica and ilex. With a multitude of different product offerings, ColdSpot® can work anywhere for many different patients.
Lidocaine
Lidocaine is a local numbing medication used to reduce pain and discomfort by blocking nerve signals in your body. It can be used to treat skin irritations such as sunburn, insect bites, minor cuts and burns. Lidocaine is fast acting and temporarily numbs an affected area.
For hours of pain relief, the Point Relief® LidoSpot™ patch adheres and stays firmly in place to the treatment area, even when performing physical activity. It is fast acting, fits anywhere for pain relief, and works for up to 12 hours. This patch is designed to block pain impulses from being transmitted. It uniquely contains the highest possible amount of lidocaine (4%) without a prescription and 1% menthol for cooling pain relief.
These topical pain relief treatments are all great for fast acting, temporary pain relief. Consult with your primary care physician before trying any of these products. For more information on our pain relief products, contact us today!
