Lightbulb this is fall out from the

tragic Ben Gay death.

Many rubs do not have Methyl Salicylate in them.

Biofreeze and Freeze It do not.

One should read the labels carefully. Over reliance on these rubs is not
a substitute for over exercising and damaging muscles/joints.
Also do not apply HEAT when using, since this increases absorption, of the aspirin related methyl salicylate.

Like with "anything" one should be sensible.
