i had bad saddle rash and saddle sore on my last tour, and i had a brooks b17 saddle ... i was stuck in a little town with no chemist and my choice at the small mini-mart was some hand creme, some ungvita a [vitamin a creme] and some tui bee balme ... i took a chance on the bee balme, applying a couple of times that day while i waited for the weather to clear and the rash had cleared up by morning ... i used it a couple of times each day during the rest of the tour and the rash didn't come back and the saddle sore was healing as well ...
the propolis used in the creme is natures anti-biotic and prevents bacterial infection ...



what can i say, other than it works for me!
