Probably because most of them contain menthol, camphor or phenol, which are known to act as "counter-irritants" and increase blood circulation within the skin. This increased circulation is felt as warmth by the nerves. Of note is that these products are ineffective. Only prescription ointments like Zovirax or Denavir (both antiviral drugs) are helpful in reducing this viral outbreak,
