I swam competitively when I was a boy. Trained in cold water for several 2-or-3--hour sessions every week, which caused me regular muscle cramps in my thighs.

My grandad rubbed in strong smelling horse linament, which came in tall dark glass bottles. He'd had two working horses before the war and still had contacts in local stables, so I assume that's where he got it from. It worked.
