Indications 

Tiger Balm Regular is used to temporarily relieve nasal congestion, blocked nose, and minor muscle and joint aches, such as those associated with simple backache, arthritis, bruises, strains, and sprains 

Tiger Balm Regular features two analgesics: camphor, and menthol. Camphor promotes skin surface blood flow, inducing a warming sensation that alleviates pain and stiffness. The combined action of camphor and menthol may enhance muscle blood circulation, potentially expediting healing and reducing inflammation. 

Furthermore, camphor serves as a gentle expectorant, nasal decongestant, and cough suppressant. While menthol aids in soothing irritated nasal passages and relieving congestion.
