I used it for sore muscles and neck. It burned but I was able to go to sleep. I woke up a short time later with excruutiating. burning pain. I tried to watch it off, that didn't work at all. By the morning I had very painful blisters every place I had put it on. I went to the doctor and he said I must have very sensitive skin. Hw gave me a shot of antibiotic because the blisters were so deep and sent me home with Keflex. Three weeks later, I still cannot bear to put on a blouse or bra, it is so painful. A caution for those who want to use Icy Hot, please test it before you put it on.Read More Read Less
