The pain is generally manageable with movement modification, stretching, and time on the inversion table. When that's not an option or not enough, I use Tiger Balm before resorting to meds. It works better than any other topical treatment I've tried--and I've tried just about all of them, including non-prescription analgesic patches and an expensive gel I got from a chiropractor. For me, it works best for back pain (but I think that much of my neck and shoulder pain is from scar tissue and is not necessarily muscular). I've noticed that when I use the Tiger Balm I rarely need to go ahead and take some sort of pain med or muscle relaxant, as well. It has quite a strong smell--which I like--but that fades. (And no, there are no "tiger" ingredients.) VS Most Liked Negative Review It smells stronger than it works! I strained an upper arm muscle - heating pad worked better, but perhaps I should have ordered a stronger version.

Comments about Tiger Balm Extra Strength Pain Relieving Ointment, .63 oz: I would recommend the Tiger Balm Ultra over this product. Ultra is stronger and is clear in color. Tiger Balm Extra Strength is brown and stains everything it comes in contact with. It washes out, but it's not as strong and the side effect is that is discolors everything it comes in contact with. Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend (1 of 1 customers found this review helpful) Was this review helpful? Yes / No - You may also flag this review 6/6/2010 Not good! Pros Cons
Best Uses Comments about Tiger Balm Extra Strength Pain Relieving Ointment, .63 oz: I bought this stuff for my mother, but she said it did not work at all.

Comments about Tiger Balm Extra Strength Pain Relieving Ointment, .63 oz: I got tiger balm because I really hate the smell of icey hot and bengay and i needed something for pain in my knuckles. Tiger balm smells so much better (kinda like vicks) and it really works! It gets really hot (great for cramps) and does not stain if you make sure you rub it in until the brown color goes away. Overall, its great stuff to have around and a little goes along way. :) Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Was this review helpful?

Cons Best Uses Comments about Tiger Balm Extra Strength Pain Relieving Ointment, .63 oz: Great stuff! I use it for anything from tension in my neck to minor knee pain. It may not feel like it's working as well as the normal (or sometimes cheaper) stuff, but just because it lacks the HUGE BURST of heat doesn't mean it's not working. Unlike all the other stuff out there, it keeps working and you don't have to reapply it as often as you do with bengay or other similar products.

Comments about Tiger Balm Extra Strength Pain Relieving Ointment, .63 oz: I have fibromyalgia, and I am allergic to NSAIDS, and that is what is used to treat it besides muscle relaxers, so I am pain a lot. This helps me to function whereas BenGay and other arthritic ointments do not touch my pain. There is a strong odor with using it, but I like the smell of clove oil so it doesn't bother me. Better than BenGay or similar products. My husband had back surgery 2 years ago and finds this to work the best for his residual chronic pain as well. Great as a chest rub for colds and sinus issues, too! Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend (1 of 1 customers found this review helpful) Was this review helpful?

Cons Best Uses Comments about Tiger Balm Extra Strength Pain Relieving Ointment, .63 oz: I love the smell....spicy.
