Soothe The Skin With Chamosyn
Posted by Deb Spinelli on December 14, 2021
Nothing puts a damper on recovery like uncomfortable, irritated skin. Chamosyn Ointment is an effective skin barrier that is ideal for a variety of painful skin conditions. Chamosyn's ingredients list is short, but don't let that fool you. This little tube packs a powerful punch. Made with protective zinc oxide and analgesic menthol, Chamosyn relieves burning, itching, and discomfort even as it protects the skin from irritants that can contribute to skin breakdown. Enriched with nourishing Aloe, Chamomile, and Manuka honey, Chamosyn soothes and hydrates as it heals. What Is A Skin Barrier? A skin barrier is something that is applied to the skin in order to create an artificial, protective skin-like layer. A skin barrier might be applied to the skin prior to the application of surgical tape or ostomy drainage bags. It might also be applied over painful or damaged skin to protect it from further irritation or to calm inflammation. Basically, a skin barrier acts like skin so that your real skin can have a chance to heal without suffering further damage or irritation. A skin barrier can be used to treat a variety of conditions. Essentially, any condition that results in irritated or chafed skin is a good candidate for a skin barrier treatment like Chamosyn. It works great for minor issues or irritations, such as:
  • Diaper Rash
  • Hemorrhoids
  • Irritation from Perspiration
  • Urine and Fecal Incontinence
  • Minor Burns, Cuts, and Scrapes
Chamosyn is also a great solution for more serious conditions, including:
  • Wound Drainage
  • Feeding Tube Leakage
  • Fecal or Vaginal Fistulas
Powerful Natural Ingredients Chamosyn's two main ingredients, zinc oxide and menthol, work together to provide your skin with healing protection. Zinc oxide helps your skin to maintain a healthy moisture balance. It dries fluid from affected areas and adheres to broken or weepy skin. Zinc oxide also prevents the skin from breakdown, protecting it from potentially damaging irritants. Menthol acts as an analgesic, relieving pain as it stimulates the nerve endings. Menthol provides fast relief from burns, itching, and local discomfort. Chamosyn is also enhanced with Aloe, Chamomile, and Manuka Honey. The Leaf of the Aloe Barbadensis is a carbohydrate- and mineral-rich natural moisturizer. Aloe promotes skin hydration naturally and gently. Chamomile Oil boasts natural anti-inflammatory properties, which helps calm and soothe the skin while also reducing the risk of infection. Long considered one of nature's most powerful antibiotics, honey has been used since ancient times to treat a variety of medical conditions. Manuka Honey has proven antibacterial qualities, as well as anti-inflammatory properties to quickly reduce pain and inflammation. The Medical Maven offers a convenient, travel-sized 4 oz tube of Chamosyn Ointment at an unbeatable price. With the healing power of zinc oxide, the soothing effects of menthol, and the nourishing benefits of Manuka Honey, Chamomile, and Aloe, nothing protects your skin like Chamosyn Ointment from The Medical Maven. Statement: Available in a 4 oz tube from The Medical Maven, Chamosyn protects, soothes, and nourishes.
