    Hi everyone,
    I recently came across this in my travels, it’s only a small tube and the best translation I could find was “power healing ointment”
    I was wondering if anybody could confirm that for me or just give me a better idea of what it is. It looks like it says fraftheillable for what I can make out.
    It’s only a small tube.
    Thank you for you help.Wondering what this is?Wondering what this is?

    I am going to guess it is frost bite ointment.

    Yes Ralph, you are spot on. It's "Frostschutzsalbe" literally "Frost protection salve"

    Thanks Tom, I didn't look close enough. I hadn't had my morning coffee!!

    First one to protect ( verb; schutzen) against frostbite, the second (verb; heilen = heal) to treat it
