Tiger balm has anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties.

This explains why it still has many other uses.

It relieves pain caused by whitlow or hallux valgus.

It also soothes the pain of a bruise, a bump or a hematoma and even makes them go away faster.

It also calms a cold sore or a canker sore and treats frostbite.

Precautions for use:

On the other hand, you should definitely not put it on the glans or testicles.

This may cause significant swelling and pain.

Likewise if you apply it to the face, pay attention to the eyes.

In case of contact with eyes, rinse thoroughly.

If the pain persists, consult a doctor promptly.

It should not be used in pregnant or breastfeeding women and in children under two years of age.

Where to buy tiger balm?

To avoid counterfeits, it is important to be careful about the brand you buy.

The most serious brand comes from Singapore and is called Haw Par.

What is known as “tiger balm” in most Western countries is better known as “essential balm” in China: a hot/cold, fragrant menthol-containing balm.

Contrary to what its name suggests, tiger balm does not contain any tiger-related ingredients.
