For example, most creams contain topical non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) to manage inflammation and relieve pain. Some creams contain counterirritants, such as capsaicin and menthol, to inhibit pain signals to the brain and provide temporary pain relief. Capsaicin produces a warming sensation, while menthol has a cooling effect. Additionally, other pain relief creams use lidocaine, a topical anesthetic, to numb the area and relieve pain.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Application method<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>You should pick a muscle rub with the most practical application method based on your preferences and potential physical limitations. Some back pain relief creams come in a tube and require you to massage the product into your skin manually. Others are designed as roll-ons, which can be helpful when applying to hard-to-reach areas. If you\u2019re not a fan of sticky creams, you may opt for products with a gel-like consistency. Those with mobility limitations may also consider sprays for easy application.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Potential side effects<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Research the product before buying, especially if you have particularly sensitive skin. Check out the ingredients to see if you\u2019ll have any potential allergic reactions. Some back pain relief creams have ingredients that can cause reactions ranging from tingling or burning sensations to rashes and itching. Always do a patch test before using the product over a large area. Lastly, if you also have a sensitive nose, you may want to go for fragrance-free products. Consult a healthcare professional if you observe any skin reactions or discomfort from pain relief cream use.<\/p>\n<h2>FAQs<\/h2>\n<h3>What is the best cream to use for back pain?<\/h3>\n<p>The best cream for back pain depends on the type of pain you\u2019re experiencing and your preferences. For example, some may want a pain relief cream that provides deep penetrating warmth like the <a href=\"https:\/\/clicks.trx-hub.com\/xid\/leafgroup_ca5e0_wellgood?q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FPenetrex-Pain-Relief-Therapy-Experience%2Fdp%2FB0026HDURA%2F%3Ftag%3Dwgtrx11026-20%26asc_refurl%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.wellandgood.com%252Fbest-creams-back-pain%252F%26asc_source%3Ddirect%26asc_campaign%3Dno-campaign&amp;p=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.wellandgood.com%2Fbest-creams-back-pain%2F&amp;event_type=click\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener sponsored\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Penetrex-Pain-Relief-Therapy-Experience\/dp\/B0026HDURA\/\">Penetrex Joint &amp; Muscle Therapy Cream<\/a>, while others prefer products like the <a href=\"https:\/\/clicks.trx-hub.com\/xid\/leafgroup_ca5e0_wellgood?q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FBiofreeze%2Fdp%2FB07CNW2DWY%3Ftag%3Dwgtrx11026-20%26asc_refurl%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.wellandgood.com%252Fbest-creams-back-pain%252F%26asc_source%3Ddirect%26asc_campaign%3Dno-campaign&amp;p=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.wellandgood.com%2Fbest-creams-back-pain%2F&amp;event_type=click\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener sponsored\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Biofreeze\/dp\/B07CNW2DWY\">Biofreeze Menthol Pain Relieving Cream<\/a> for an icy cool feel. Some may need a cream with numbing agents like lidocaine to numb pain areas, while others may want the best arthritis cream to alleviate arthritis pain. Others might be looking for the best cream for sciatica pain for targeted pain relief, while some may just be looking for an all-around pain relief cream.<\/p>\n<h3>Does cream help lower back pain?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, topical creams can help with lower back pain. They work either by creating a hot or cold sensation that distracts the brain from pain or by delivering pain-relieving medication directly to the affected area. Creams can be applied to specific areas, allowing for targeted pain relief, which is useful if the pain is localized around the lower back area. Note that they can only provide temporary relief and that you should always consult a healthcare professional, especially if there\u2019s recurring or worsening pain. In many cases, prevention is the best measure, so learn which <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/exercises-avoid-with-back-pain\/\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/exercises-avoid-with-back-pain\/\">exercises to avoid<\/a>, and pay attention to your sleeping position.<\/p>\n<h3>How do you relieve back pain fast?<\/h3>\n<p>Aside from topical pain relief creams, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen, or try cold and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/heating-pads-for-cramps\/\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/heating-pads-for-cramps\/\">heat therapy<\/a> on the affected area. Make it a practice to do light stretching and exercises before and after strenuous physical activities.

Thanks to this triple-action formula, reviewers felt a cooling sensation immediately upon application, followed by deep-penetrating relief for their tense muscles. Another feature they liked about the Bengay cream is the thick yet non-greasy consistency that you can easily rub into your skin for fast-acting relief.<\/p>\n<p>One downside is that the scent is strong enough for other people to smell it on you, but many reviewers didn\u2019t mind since some of them liked the smell. Fortunately, the brand also offers a fragrance-free Bengay cream for those with sensitive noses and even lightly scented ones for those who want a toned-down smell.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"inline-shopable-pros\">\n<ul>\n<li>Fast-acting relief <\/li>\n<li>Cooling effect <\/li>\n<li>Non-greasy formula <\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"theme-main-2020\">\n<div class=\"wg-inline-shopable\">\n<h2 class=\"text-h2 wg-inline-shopable__title mb-[20px]\">Best icy:<\/h2>\n<div class=\"pb-[20px] sm:pb-[35px] sm:flex justify-between\">\n<div class=\"w-full\">\n<figure class=\"block w-full wg-inline-shopable__figure p-0 m-0 mb-[25px]\"> <a data-vars-event=\"product image\" data-vars-info=\"Biofreeze%2C+Menthol+Pain+Relieving+Cream\" href=\"https:\/\/clicks.trx-hub.com\/xid\/leafgroup_ca5e0_wellgood?q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FBiofreeze%2Fdp%2FB07CNW2DWY%3Ftag%3Dwgtrx11026-20%26asc_refurl%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.wellandgood.com%252Fbest-creams-back-pain%252F%26asc_source%3Ddirect%26asc_campaign%3Dno-campaign&amp;p=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.wellandgood.com%2Fbest-creams-back-pain%2F&amp;event_type=click\" target=\"_blank\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" rel=\"sponsored noopener\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Biofreeze\/dp\/B07CNW2DWY\"> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Biofreeze-Menthol-Pain-Relieving-Cream-_falsexfalse_true_70.webp\" class=\"block w-full no-pin\" alt=\"\"\/> <\/a><figcaption class=\"text-center text-caption--article text-gray-light block mt-[10px]\"\/> <\/figure>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/clicks.trx-hub.com\/xid\/leafgroup_ca5e0_wellgood?q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FBiofreeze%2Fdp%2FB07CNW2DWY%3Ftag%3Dwgtrx11026-20%26asc_refurl%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.wellandgood.com%252Fbest-creams-back-pain%252F%26asc_source%3Ddirect%26asc_campaign%3Dno-campaign&amp;p=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.wellandgood.com%2Fbest-creams-back-pain%2F&amp;event_type=click\" class=\"wg-inline-shopable__subtitle-link\" data-vars-event=\"product name\" data-vars-info=\"Biofreeze%2C+Menthol+Pain+Relieving+Cream\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" rel=\"sponsored\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Biofreeze\/dp\/B07CNW2DWY\"> <\/p>\n<p>Biofreeze, Menthol Pain Relieving Cream \u2014 $12.00<\/p>\n<p> <\/a> <\/p>\n<div class=\"text-big mb-[5px] wg-inline-shopable__content mt-[10px]\">\n<p>If an ice pack isn\u2019t working, this cooling pain relief cream from Biofreeze may be the solution.

The CBD in this cream adds a nice muscle-relaxing effect, perfect to use right before bed. However, having CBD as a main ingredient does make it a bit pricey.

This mix gives off a pleasant, cooling feel and a wonderful minty scent that\u2019s gentle on the nose. It also contains moisturizing ingredients like avocado, jojoba, and hemp oil to prevent dry, chapped skin. However, it can leave an oily feel on your skin after use. It\u2019s a bit expensive and only comes in a small container, but fortunately, you only need a small amount to see quick results.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"inline-shopable-pros\">\n<ul>\n<li>All-natural ingredients <\/li>\n<li>Moisturizing <\/li>\n<li>Safe for children <\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<div class=\"inline-shopable-cons\">\n<ul>\n<li>Leaves greasy feel on the skin <\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"disclaimers__after_content mb-[18px] mt-[16px] pt-[16px]\">\n<div class=\"outline-earmark relative mt-[8px] pt-[10px] pl-[20px]\">\n<p>\n            Our editors independently select these products.
