Menthol for therapeutic purposes?

[thatguyjeff]

I was a menthol smoker. I remember whenever I had a cold or something, I would get a slight soothing affect when smoking my menthols. Of course, in the long run, I wasn't helping anything by smoking the organics anyway.

I'm not a menthol vaper. But I would think that an otherwise unflavored liquid with menthol would work just as well as a cough drop - clear the sinuses, chest, etc.

Anyone tried using menthol specifically when they had a cold?

I think I might get some juice with menthol flavoring only, just for this purpose.

I would probably just stick with Vics Vapor Rub but I see where your coming from...

I have a bottle of "Strong Menthol" (Backwood Brew) which I use when my sinus congestion is bad OR when I have a cold. It works for me. I didn't throw out the Vicks, though.
