WELMATE 5% Lidocaine Numbing Cream for Hemorrhoids, 5.5 oz - Fast-Acting Maximum Strength Topical Anesthetic, Pain & Burn Relief, Anorectal Cream for Sensitive Skin, Non-Greasy

This 5% Lidocaine cream works on ANY part of your body -- it is not just for hemorrhoids! My husband gets sharp pains and aches in his hands, arms, lower legs, and feet, mostly from aging. If he rubs in this cream right after the pain starts, it makes the pain stop in 10-12 minutes. If he lets the pain get too bad, it will dull it a bit but isn't effective at making it disappear completely without several applications. You should be aware that the ingredients in the 5.5 oz jar are DIFFERENT than the ingredients in the 6.0 oz jar. Unfortunately this webpage shows the same ingredients for both sizes and that's INCORRECT. The 5.5oz cream seems less greasy than the 6oz cream and rubs in a bit faster with less residual stickiness, so that's the size I order now. That said, both are 5% lidocaine and work equally well to alleviate general aches and pains. Both are quite thick but spread very well -- just a little goes a long way. While not quite unscented, neither is perfumed. (The only thing I can compare it to is a very mild white school glue sort of scent. But it's VERY mild -- you practically have to stick your nose into the jar to smell it.) For all practical purposes once it's on your skin it is unscented. BOTTOM LINE: It's great for localized pain relief ANYWHERE on your body. It works INSTANTLY to stop the itch of bug bites or minor burns, too! I buy the 5.5oz size at least once a month. It's the best topical product we've tried to relieve my husband's aging related aches and pains and seems to be a reasonable value for the price.

Used for phobia of needles. Applied a small nickel sized amount to inside of elbow area and rubbed in. Then applied a thick quarter sized blob and left that to sit on top. Covered that with Tegaderm bandage to sit for 1hr before blood draw. Plebotomist helped remove the Tegaderm. I looked away and didn't even notice they put in the needle. Paired great with anxiety medicine for great experience.

I use this for my microneedling sessions at homes it numbs really well. I’ll order this again when I need more. Great lasting numbness.

Works great for bug bites and numbs the skin very well, last a long time. A little runny in texture, no scent at all. Use sparingly a little goes a long way.

Got this for a topical lidocaine to use before Cryosurgery, 5%. This is not a gel, this is a legit white cream. We have to put it on let it sit and then prep the area, so far it seems to have worked great. The girls in the office are using it on their back and hips. Will likely purchase another two pack to have on hand at the clinic.

I never imagined I'd be writing a hemorrhoid cream review while my face recovers from looking like a tiny pin cushion, but life comes at you fast. I grabbed the WELMATE 5% Lidocaine Cream for Hemorrhoids – Maximum Strength because it promised serious numbing power. I slathered a generous layer all over my face like expensive moisturizer and let it sit for 30-45 minutes. I looked like a shiny glazed donut the whole time, but worth it — my face went pretty damn numb, very little feeling, yay! Afterward, I cleaned it off with alcohol wipes (hello, hospital-pharmacy scent) and went straight in with the microneedling pen. Instead of the usual "why is my face being attacked by angry bees" sensation, it felt like gentle little taps, kind of. I powered through the session like a champ though. Skin is looking better already, and the low pain part is a total game-changer. The only weird part is seeing a hemorrhoid cream tube chilling in my skincare lineup every morning. Would I do it again? Absolutely. WELMATE, you made a product strong enough to handle both ends of the body. Respect.

I bought this to use while micro-needling and I'm almost 100% sure that it does absolutely nothing. I recommend going another way.

This cream sure does help. First application I Could feel the difference. A bit overpriced for the size.
