What is the difference between cooling oil and tiger balm?

In daily life, we always hear about cooling oil and Tiger Balm. I believe that many friends, like me, find it difficult to distinguish between them. In fact, cooling oil and Tiger Balm are the same medicine. They are generally used more in summer. They are mainly for relieving mosquito bites, dizziness and headaches. Here, I will introduce the specific usage and efficacy of cooling oil.

In fact, cooling oil, also known as Tiger Balm, contains ingredients such as camphor, peppermint oil, eucalyptus oil and cinnamon. It is an over-the-counter medicine for heatstroke and colds. Therefore, there is no difference between cooling oil and Tiger Balm, because they refer to the same kind of medicine. A paste-like medicine made of menthol, camphor, cinnamon oil, eucalyptus oil and paraffin is used to treat headaches, minor burns, etc. It has a wide range of applications, but cannot cure serious diseases. It is called cooling oil today, but of course people in the past also called it tiger balm.

Cooling oil is commonly known as "tiger balm" and it certainly has many uses. Here are a few of them.

If paint accidentally gets on your skin, and if there is no gasoline, alcohol or other solvents around to clean it, you can apply a little cooling oil, wait 2 minutes, and then gently wipe it with clean cotton. It will be easy to wash off. If the paint has dried, apply cooling oil for 3 minutes and the paint on the skin will automatically roll up and can be torn off with your fingers. The smell of cooling oil has a strong mosquito repellent effect. If you place opened boxes of cooling oil in dark corners of the room, mosquitoes will not dare to enter the room throughout the summer.

Patients with corns can apply cooling oil on their corns several times a day, and then smoke them with a lit cigarette to allow the cooling oil to penetrate into the corns. After a period of treatment, the corns will fall off automatically.

When your skin is itchy, you can apply some cooling oil on the itchy area to relieve the itching immediately.

For small-area burns or scalds, immediate application will not cause any future problems. Hot oil, boiling water, cigarette butts, etc. in the kitchen are all sources of injury, especially burns from motorcycle exhaust pipes, which are difficult to heal over time. The characteristic of burns is generally that there are no blisters except redness of the skin at the time, but blisters and injuries will appear afterwards. The biggest advantage of applying cooling oil is that you cannot see the blisters or wounds from beginning to end, so there will be no pain afterwards. The prerequisite is that you must have cooling oil at home and around you.

Method: Within 3 to 5 minutes after being burned or scalded (the sooner the better the effect), cover the affected area with cooling oil. The thickness of the covering should be no less than 1 to 2 mm (about the thickness of 1 to 2 ordinary leaves. The larger the area, the thicker the required thickness). Generally, it only takes ten minutes to half an hour to apply, but the larger the area, the longer it will take.

Feeling: A hot and painful feeling will be felt when applying it (because the heat is being dissipated).

Principle: Cold and hot cancel each other out, just like absorbing heat and removing heat.

Verification effect: It works great every time I use it. Comparison: Far superior to other artillery coverage and after-the-fact treatment methods.

Tonsillitis, as soon as you feel pain ~ When you first feel trouble with your tonsils, rub it externally with cooling oil - rub the outer skin of the tonsils with cooling oil until it becomes hot. Apply it at least 3 times in a row in one round, don't be reluctant to use it. The best effect is achieved in the morning, afternoon and evening, especially before going to bed. Of course, you can also go online at any time according to your needs.

Supporting measures: Take some anti-inflammatory drugs.

Cooling oil has many uses. You should be careful when using it normally, especially when your skin is itchy. When using cooling oil, try not to rub it on the damaged skin surface, as it will irritate the skin and cause pain, and skin infection is also likely to occur.
