Soothing treatment that contains four active ingredients.
Balmosa cream is a topical treatment for chilblains that provides both relief from discomfort and a warming sensation.

During the winter months, many people suffer from chilblains, a condition where small, itchy red patches appear on your skin after you’ve been in the cold. They mostly appear on your fingers and toes, but it’s not unusual for your face and legs to be affected too.
Balmosa cream is often one of the first treatments to be recommended for chilblains. This is because its active ingredients work to both relieve your pain and create a warming effect to counter the cold.
Balmosa cream contains four active ingredients that work together to help your symptoms: menthol, camphor, methyl salicylate and capsicum oleoresin.
These active ingredients work in tandem to dilate the capillaries in your body, which, in turn, improves your circulation. This then creates a sensation of warmth around the affected area, helping to reduce inflammation, ease discomfort and alleviate pain.
The ‘warmth’ that Balmosa creates can also work to distract you from the itchiness and discomfort of chilblains symptoms.
Balmosa cream typically comes in a 40g tube containing 4% camphor, 4% methyl salicylate, 2% menthol and 0.035% capsicum oleoresin. Our clinician might advise you to use more or less of the cream per day depending on your symptoms, which will affect your ‘dosage’.
How we source info.
When we present you with stats, data, opinion or a consensus, we’ll tell you where this came from. And we’ll only present data as clinically reliable if it’s come from a reputable source, such as a state or government-funded health body, a peer-reviewed medical journal, or a recognised analytics or data body. Read more in our editorial policy.
You should always use Balmosa cream exactly as prescribed by our clinician. Don’t use it on broken or inflamed skin, and make sure that you stop using it and contact our clinician immediately if you have an adverse or allergic reaction to it.
To use Balmosa cream:
The amount of time Balmosa cream takes to work can vary. In the case of chilblains, the ‘warmth’ that Balmosa generates should start to provide some relief almost immediately after application.
For other uses, Balmosa cream still gets to work quickly to increase circulation, reduce inflammation and ease your pain and discomfort.
Never use more than the prescribed dose of Balmosa cream. Doing so won’t relieve your symptoms any faster, and might make you more likely to experience adverse effects.
Don’t wash the affected areas of your skin straight after you’ve applied the cream, and avoid using other products on the area (unless you’ve been told you can by our clinician).
Don’t use Balmosa cream on broken or sore skin, and try to avoid getting it near your eyes or nostrils. If you accidentally get any onto these areas, rinse immediately.
Balmosa cream is to be applied externally only. Do not swallow. But if you accidentally consume any, seek medical attention immediately and take the product packaging with you.
