Mechanism of Action
Diclofenac inhibits the COX enzymes reducing prostaglandin synthesis, thereby reducing inflammation and pain. Menthol and methyl salicylate act as counterirritants: they create initial cooling followed by warming sensations, which distract from deeper pain signals and promote local blood flow. Linseed oil adds soothing and mild anti-inflammatory benefit.
