Sorry Sammi - I tried patches once but had to stop after a few days because they gave me a rash and I couldn't handle the itchiness! I would have thought that trying different places would be best.
Sorry I can't help but I hope you find a solution cos I know how annoying it is!!!
I do wave mine for about 30 seconds. I put it on top outer thigh or side of bxm area. some itch a tad but not enough to remove. some leave more of a red mark when i remove them but again not bothersome. Hope yours settle x
itching isnt so bad now but it is still quite itchy
Does anyone have any other tips on using patches that I can try?
Maybe its itchier on more tickly skin or something
I think i might try different places each day
Try using a different brand mine itched for a while I think it is probably also to do with the strength of the ones you are using, think of the itch as something to occupy your hand with whilst you are killing the scratch you are killing the addiction
ooh good idea scottie. And yes Shakey it was a relief when I woke up this morning. I felt so disappointed in myself in my dream... I hope I dont get many dreams like that
The leg seems to be working for me today, it really wasnt as itchy as the other places I have tried my patches.
I was going to put one on my buttock but thought again because i didnt want to be wandering round the office scratching my butt!
