I use the lidocaine 2% visc sol gel on my nether regions. It says on the label it shouldnt be used long term but I need it everyday. Also does anyone else use this in a stronger strength and what strength is it. I think I need something stronger.

Does anyone else use this everyday?

Thanks

I have been using lidocaine gel and patches longterm and many times daily for months at time. If anything, I do better when I use it that way. Well, I get the 2% gel/ointment but I know it also comes in 5%. I also use the 5% patches and do find that they give me much better and longer lasting relief than the 2%gel.

Its actually a numbing gel for the mouth but you can smear it all down in your nether region for burning. You get it by a prescription..

I also use the Lidocaine 2% Jelly. Mine come in a syringe form and I insert it through the urethra and inject usually 5ml directly into my bladder. When my bladder if flaring really bad I use all 10 ml. It is instant relief but doesnt last long. It is a longer plastic tip kind of like a catheter. I dont leave home with one in my purse.
