Zam Buk Ointment 20g

Product Information

Camphor is a terpene (an organic compound) that is frequently used in vapor rubs and herbal salves to relieve pain and reduce itching. Camphor seems to increase blood flow to the area and stimulates nerve ending when applied topically. It also treats toenail fungus, warts, cold sores, hemorrhoids, first degree burns, and osteoarthritis. There are several formulas for Zam-Buk but they all contain camphor, eucalyptus oil and thyme oil all of which are somewhat antimicrobial and both camphor and eucalyptus have analgesic properties. Eucalyptus oil and camphor, the active ingredients in Zam-Buk Ointment, contain anti-inflammatory properties which can help to relieve pain, and the itchiness associated with minor wounds, burns, scalds, chapped hands, and mosquito and insect bites

Eucalyptus Oil is traditionally used to treat insect bites, burns and cuts. It is often used topically as an antiseptic to reduce the risk of infection and to stimulate healing. Additionally, eucalyptus is commonly used to relieve pain when it is rubbed into sore muscles. 2. Thyme Oil My family and I have used this product for many years!
