A 6percent lidocaine prep does wonders for me. Since it is higher than 5 percent you need a compounding pharmacist to prepare it.

Good evening @wwenerowicz and @mtborz .....you know...I also find medical terminology a bit hard for me to both remember and understand. I try to keep things simple. Anyway.....I used a lidocaine compound for several years. My neurologist kept making changes to keep up with the pain progression and tingle tangles in my hands and arms. I have SFN (small fiber neuropathy) and it has its challenges.

I now use medical cannabis tinctures and topicals for pain control. Yet, I do have a colleague @johnbishop who has SFN with no pain. Perhaps he will be able to share with you the types of medications he uses for his symptoms.

May you and your husband be free of suffering and the causes of suffering.
