Sciatica Relief Treatment for Lower Back Pain, Leg Pain, and Buttock Pain: Lumbar Disc Herniation Nerve Compression Patch

Product Efficacy: The primary functions are to relieve pain and reduce inflammation. It alleviates discomfort such as pain and numbness in the sciatic nerve distribution area by improving local blood circulation, promoting the resolution of inflammation, and relieving muscle spasms. Ingredient Characteristics: These plasters contain diverse ingredients, commonly including both traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and Western pharmaceutical components. TCM ingredients like Chuanxiong (Ligusticum wallichii), Honghua (Carthamus tinctorius), and Danggui (Angelica sinensis) promote blood circulation and disperse blood stasis. Ingredients like raw Aconitum carmichaeli and Aconitum kusnezoffii possess warming and meridian-unblocking properties. Western medicine-based patches typically contain nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as flurbiprofen or loxoprofen sodium. These work by inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis, thereby reducing inflammatory responses and providing pain relief. Mechanism of Action: After application, medicinal components permeate through the skin into the body, reaching the affected area. They act on compressed nerve roots or surrounding tissues, thereby alleviating pain, improving blood circulation, and reducing inflammation. Usage: Typically applied directly to the painful area or relevant acupoints. Recommended application sites include the paraspinal region near the affected spinous process in the lower lumbar spine, the piriformis muscle area in the buttocks, and the popliteal fossa behind the knee—all along the sciatic nerve pathway. Application duration varies by product but generally ranges from 12 to 24 hours. Suitable for: Primarily intended for individuals experiencing sciatica caused by conditions such as lumbar disc herniation or lumbar spinal stenosis. Commonly seen in individuals aged 40-60, as well as those in physically demanding occupations, drivers, and other specific occupational groups.
