After babysitting for my 2 youngest grandchildren, my back and legs are usually quite uncomfortable. Picking them up to change diapers, put down for naps and picking up toys is a challenge. BenGay helps my back and legs and arms stop hurting so I can keep going.

I was skeptical at 1st, Bengay is kind of a joke brand for guys and my husband wouldn`t touch the stuff. I used a papertowl to rub it on to my lower back - I didn`t want it on my hands. The smell isn`t the worst it`s kind of menthol smelling. I could feel my back tingle a little then contiuned on with my day. After about 2 hours I noticed that I wan`t noticing much back pain. So - it helped. I don`t know exactly how long it took but i went about my business and felt better for having used it.

i didn`t have any problems with bengay. i new it really smelled like bengay and i was ready for it. it targeted the problem area within minutes. it seems to relieve the pain of my shoulders within a good time frame. so i really don`t mind the smell. i know it is working

This product could not have come at a better time. I had just started a new job which requires heavy lifting, bending and stretching. I was in alot of pain after the first day. I had received my Bengay the day before so my husband suggested rubbing it on my sore back. The relief was instantaneous! The incredible Cooling feeling went down to the sore muscles in my back and it felt like he was rubbing the knots right out. This cream took the soreness right out of my body and left me feeling refreshed and ready for the next day! What a great product! It is great to know that whenever I am in pain I can pull out my Bengay cream and the pain will disappear!

I was given a trial of BenGay and used it right away. I have back problems,knee problems shoulder problems and elbow problems. I applied a small amount on each of these areas and could feel warmth right awayl. While BenGay did not totally take away the pain, it made it more managable for me and I could do my household chores easier.

The stuff DOES work. My forearms were very sore from pulling grape vines and thorns for two days, and I did quickly get pain relief after rubbing the cream on my arms and wrists. The smell, though, is overpowering and neither I nor my cat liked it. It`s not an especially unpleasant smell, but it is very strong and distinctive. It`s a shame - I do think this is an effective product.

I twisted my back the day after receiving, talk about coming in handy. My pain made it comfort_able to get to sleep. My husband liked it to for his elbow pain. Loved it, to bad it does have that menthol scent, but at least it is a lighter scent than some others. Non greasy is wonderful!

I remember as a child my grandfather would come home from work , shower then apply BenGay . As weird as it sounds I loved the smell of it , fast forward 55 yrs later , I use it now on my joints and sore muscles after the gym ,stuff works really well for me.

Bengay Ultra Strength really helped the pain go away in my lower back. I was pleasantly surprised by how fast it worked. We will keep this stocked in the medicine cabinet of our house and use as needed. Very happy to have found this great pain reliever.

Bengay worked immediately, which was wonderful, but the smell lasted longer than the relief. I applied the product 3 hours before I went to bed, yet I was still able to smell it on my bed linens the next day. It was great relief, and I was able to move easier after it was applied, but the smell burned my eyes and lasted much longer than I would have liked.
