How to use vicks vaporub for erectile dysfunction?

Been facing some issues lately, and it's quite embarrassing to discuss with a doctor. A friend mentioned that Vicks Vaporub might be helpful for erectile dysfunction. Can anyone tell me how to use it for this purpose, if it even works?

I am quite new to discussing this topic and felt a bit hesitant to ask. But does rubbing Vicks really help with blood flow, or is it just a myth? I read about it online but am quite scared to try it.

I deal with hormone issues like thyroid, and I know how crucial proper doctor follow-ups are for any physical symptom. Please don't use harsh products like Vicks on sensitive areas, it can cause severe chemical burns. Go to a specialist and get your hormone levels checked properly.

I can only share from my personal understanding that Vicks is strictly designed for chest congestion and muscle pain. Putting it on private parts can be extremely painful and dangerous. I would strongly advise sticking to actual medical solutions for ED.

I have tried my share of weird home remedies over the years, but using Vicks for this is a big mistake. The menthol in it will cause a terrible burning sensation on sensitive skin. Skip these hacks and consult a urologist who can give you proper, safe treatments.

I visit a reputed hospital for my health issues, and any doctor there will tell you that this is highly unsafe. Vicks Vaporub contains camphor and menthol which can cause severe mucosal irritation. Please ask a qualified urologist clearly about safe, clinically proven treatments instead.
