Last Saturday morning I went for a 6 mile run. Later that day I went to my sister’s house to watch the FSU game. My right knee was killing me and I couldn’t stop rubbing it. My brother-in-law noticed my discomfort and told me he had just the thing. He whipped out a little jar of ointment called Tiger Balm. I had never heard of it before but decided to give it whirl. I have got to say it is awesome (thanks Patrick!). My knee felt great the next day and I went out to pick some up after my run yesterday. I looked for it at Target but they don’t have it, the only place I know of is CVS. If you have pain in your joints give this stuff a try, it works for me.
I have no relationship with the makers of this product, I just think it’s good stuff.
Heh, heh… most of us learn of Tiger Balm in our 30’s!!!
@Heather in Beautiful BC:
That is fitting now that I am in my 30s. So sad.
Knee pain sucks!!
If nursing an inner groin injury, avoid the inadvertent application of tiger balm to your testicles.
Not fun.
@Jeremy Hilton:
That is too funny! Tara and I had a long discussion about whether it would hurt or not. Now I know.
I have been using this stuff for years – and I love it! Try it on your back after a long day in front of the computer…you’ll get addicted!
[…] running again a couple weeks ago and so far so good. Aside from some knee pain I feel great (the tiger balm is helping a lot with that). I finally have the right gear for long distance runs and I am happy to […]
Hi ted, for me it’s different, I have a relationship with the makers of this product 🙂
Thank you for this post and your good comment for this product
@tiger balm:
You should send me some samples to give away to my readers!
Tiger balms great for lots of situations, Ive used it for everything from strains, aches pains and colds. I keep a jar handy when I have a cold, you can smear some on a hankie to relieve a blocked up nose or place a small amount in hot water to release the vapours, just remember to close your eyes!
