I do not travel much so I guess it is OK. Ben is my close buddy for most of the winter. And yes, I DO know my perfume is Eau d'Bengay. I have yet to find anything without the wonderful fumes that will work on either my congested self OR my aching muscles. For me it beats Vi ck's Va po..... I can understand why. I can't breathe!!!.
K:
Biofreeze gel. It still has a slight odor but much less than BG, it penetrates faster and in addition to giving you topical relief it also contains an herb which is anti-inflammatory so that absorbs right into the muscles or joints and works really quickly. A lot of out patient physical therapy and chiropractic clinics sell this, pharmacies can order it for you and you can probably find it online as well.
Sorry for the rant and obviously sorry for anyone who is in pain. But this guest used so much that MY QUARTERS were filled with the scent (and there is no direct connection from her room to my area, so this was just wafting everywhere), it was so strong my eyes were watering. I felt very sorry for their room neighbors, and there is absolutely nothing you can do except wait for the smell to dissipate.
