FAQs
1. Why put Vicks on feet instead of the chest?
The feet have large pores that absorb the menthol and camphor, which can help soothe coughs and improve circulation.
2. Can Vicks help with dry, cracked heels?
Yes! The petroleum jelly base locks in moisture, making it an effective overnight treatment for softening rough skin.
3. Is it safe for children?
Vicks VapoRub is not recommended for children under 2 years old. Instead, use a baby-safe version designed for younger kids.
4. How often should I apply Vicks to my feet?
You can use it nightly for cough relief and relaxation or a few times a week for foot care.
By trying this simple yet effective remedy, you may find that Vicks VapoRub offers more benefits than you ever expected!
