Dragon Pain Relief Cream Reviews
Dragon is one of many topical pain relief products on the market, and while brands of higher visibility may steal the spotlight in this department, a cursory glance of the ingredients shows that Dragon can certainly compete with the rest of the field.
Featuring an ample 10% menthol, along with camphor and methyl salicaylate, Dragon should smell and feel similar to other topical pain relief products if you have used any such product in the past. Because of this, Dragon is a solid choice for minor aches and pains.
To apply, you simply rub it on, bandage the area if desired, and feel the product begin to work. The inclusion of camphor as an anti-inflammatory agent is a bonus, and for those who have not been satisfied with menthol-only products, Dragon should definitely be on your short list to try.
We found the smell to be acceptable and on par with competing products. We also have not found Dragon to stain clothing in our tests.
The price and ingredients make Dragon a no-brainer if you are looking for a topical pain relief cream which may also help inflammation. Be sure not to apply this or any other topical pain relief cream to open wounds, and keep in mind that topical pain relief creams will not cure any underlying condition.
