Camphor / menthol topical for Pain "When I used this product, I put it on my temple for a headache, but it only burns. Now, yes, I couldn't feel the headache because my face was on fire. Not the best, I could have hurt myself for free without buying this."

Camphor / menthol topical for Pain "Last May, I was admitted to our local hospital for a reaction to a prescribed anti-anxiety drug that not only did not calm my issues, but caused my heart enzymes to elevate. I had a near-death experience in 2018 when I collapsed on the floor of Gold's Gym. Unfortunately, the defibrillator was dead. Due to the quick action of my instructor of 35 years, I survived. When I was admitted to the ER, I could hardly breathe from the pain. They thought it was my heart causing it. It was excruciating. I was hospitalized for a week, and nothing they gave me for the pain even touched it. My heart never let me know what distress it was in! I headed for our local Sprouts, as I've always been a naturopath. The clerk showed me the patches and balm. From the very moment I used the products, I have been pain."
