Based on your comment, it appears that Icy/Hot contains capsacisn. I've used capsacisn-based products but switched to lidocaine because it was easier to use and more effective but without all the worries you mentioned. Why use something that will hurt you if you don't need to? Best of luck to you.

It doesn't hurt if you wash your hands after using it. I also use the Lidocaine, but neither of those are as effective as TENS. When the PN is really painful and immediate relief is needed. Tens is my primary go-to and has been for years. Unfortunately for me, I have much experience with dealing with PN. As you know, there is no cure. It is something that you have to learn to live with.
