I woke up with a bad lower back pain. I had some rubs in the past but couldn't find them. As I was browsing through my medicine box, there stood out a memorable green jar. Great, if I had a stuffy nose, this would be good.
Mentholatum ointment. My mom used to use this on us, when we had a chest cold. I do not know what made me read the label, but the words topical analgesic caught my eye. Wow, this means pain relief! So I tried it. It WORKS. I may not smell that great, but my pain was relieved.

Rita,
I have used it on my knee at night before as well. Ben-Gay and Aspercreme did nothing to relieve the pain. Like you, one night I thought about how soothing it is to put it on your chest when you are congested.
This little bottle of amazing works wonders
Yep. It has Menthal, Camphor and Eucalyptus. Key ingredients to keeping the pain down. I love it.
