I started applying Salonpas pain patches to the bottom of my feet for pain, and they do provide relief but my skin is so thin,when I pull them off,I also take off some of my thin skin, and then I’m bleeding and need bandaids!

I tried these then used fentanyl patches and didn't have any problems. Some people use baby or olive oil, or remove after taking a shower/bath. Alcohol may also work. I thought this product was discontinued? Hope one of these suggestions helps.
Good luck,
Jake

Instead of patches you can try Salonpas pain cream

@harley22 I have been testing CareLand 4% Lidocaine Gel Patches and WELMATE 4% Lidocaine Numbing Patches. I personally prefer the CareLand brand because the patches stick well and are easy to handle. The Welmate patches might be worthwhile exploring in your case because they don't stick that much. Available at Amazon.
