they only work externally so unless your stomach pain is your stomach muscles I can’t see them being much help lindocaine is a topical treatment it doesn’t penetrate deep into the stomach and if your pain is your bowel etc all yly will find is that you have numb skin on your tummy with a patch

no worries I had them when I broke all my ribs I didn’t find them helpful and had to have a nerve block but that’s another story. I hope it helps your stomach x

I’ve got multiple fractures in my back . And spine is bad . So I use to walk a lot but now it’s very difficult . So stomach is playing up it’s just crampy . I’m waiting on a scan to see what treatment is suitable . But thanks again .

I have abdominal pain and b&m sell heat pads for period pain or stomach cramps and they are only £1 for 2 pads. They last 12 hours try these they do help me.
