Temporary relief of minor aches and pains associated with sore muscles, backache, arthritis, strains, sprains, bruises, and joint pain. Commonly used for conditions like muscle strains, arthritic joints, and minor sports injuries affecting muscles and joints.
Lidocaine acts as a local anesthetic by blocking nerve signals in the applied area, reducing sensation of pain. Camphor and menthol work as counterirritants - they create cooling and warming sensations on the skin that help override pain signals being sent to the brain, providing a soothing effect.
For external use only - do not apply to broken skin, eyes, or mucous membranes. Do not bandage tightly or use with heating pads. Discontinue use and consult a healthcare provider if symptoms worsen, clear up and recur, or if excessive skin irritation occurs. Keep out of reach of children. Do not ingest.
