If you are struggling with bouts of chilblains during the cold winter months, you’re likely looking for relief. One product that has been gaining attention is CCS Swedish Foot Cream, a unique formulation that claims to provide some relief. But can this foot cream actually help with chilblains?
Chilblains, also known as perniosis, are small, itchy, inflamed welts that can appear on the feet or hands due to cold temperatures. When exposed to the cold, small blood vessels near the surface of the skin can become constricted and this can cause the skin to become painful and inflamed. CCS Swedish Foot Cream is a unique formulation specifically designed to give your feet relief from the discomfort of chilblains.horThe cream is made with natural ingredients such as urea, lactic acid, and glycerin to help soften and protect the skin. Urea helps to break down the thick, dead skin cells that can trap moisture and cause chilblains. It also gives the cream antibacterial and antifungal properties which are very important in preventing recurrent episodes of chilblains.
Lactic acid is also present in this formulation and it helps to further remove dead skin cells that can clog the pores and cause irritation. Glycerin helps to protect the skin from dehydration and helps to keep it moisturized for longer.
CCS Swedish Foot Cream also contains a combination of essential oils, like tea tree and camphor, which can help to soothe the skin and reduce inflammation caused by chilblains. The presence of menthol helps to give the cream a cooling sensation that can help to reduce the itchiness and discomfort that comes with a chilblain attack. Many Zoom Health customers use CCS cream in combination with our ever-popular Snowfire ointment stick for maximum relief.
Overall, CCS Swedish Foot Cream is an effective formulation that can help to provide relief from the discomfort of chilblains. It helps to protect and nourish the skin, and its combination of active ingredients helps to reduce inflammation caused by cold temperatures. Be sure to follow the directions on the label and talk to your doctor if you have any concerns.
