Benefits

  • Massage with a warming oil improves local blood flow and eases muscular stiffness.
  • Traditional aromatic herbal oils produce a counter-irritant warming or cooling effect that distracts from underlying pain.
  • Topical application avoids the gastric and renal effects of oral analgesics, which matters in the elderly and in patients who cannot take NSAIDs.
  • Long established in Indian household practice and well accepted by patients for everyday musculoskeletal complaints.
  • Can be used alongside oral treatment for additional local relief.

03

Precautions

  • For external use only. Never swallow. Keep out of reach of children.
  • Do not apply to broken skin, open wounds, burns or mucous membranes.
  • Do not use with a heating pad or under tight occlusive dressing — this can cause serious burns with counter-irritant preparations.
  • Avoid contact with the eyes; wash hands thoroughly after application.
  • Discontinue if the skin becomes irritated, and test on a small area first in anyone with sensitive skin.
  • Symptomatic relief only. Persistent joint pain, swelling, deformity or pain following significant injury needs medical assessment.
  • Use in pregnancy, breastfeeding and in young children only on advice.
