I brought Vicks salve back into my life probably 10 yrs ago....it's got so many healing properties including it's an analgesic and here is a lot of comments from many who use it..including me.

I rub it into my feet every day/night, wear socks of course, rub on my OA knee often with my other stuff, and smear some on my lips when I go to sleep.

I had no clue what the pad was. Nkat

We use it in the spring on our ears and backs of our necks to keep the gnats away. Also on the top of the bills of our hats as well as on the ears of our equine when the black flies are biting.

It is my go to Bug Juice. We also use Absorbine Jr. as a gnat/skeeter bug off.
