does icy hot feel cold or hot on skin
Recently, IcyHot has come out with sleeves, a Power Gel, Medicated Spray, and No Mess Applicator. Although IcyHot does make its user feel heat and cold, IcyHot does not actually heat or chill the area to which it is applied. Instead, IcyHot stimulates nerve receptors, causing the user to first feel cool, and then feel heat. These products generally contain Menthol or a combination of Menthol and Methyl Salicylate (typically for mild pain relief). The main ingredient is Menthol 10% (in the cream) which acts as a topical analgesic.
