Vick
Short for Vicks VapoRub, this topical ointment is used to relieve cold symptoms and help skin healing. In Panama, it is a ubiquitous home remedy for almost any minor illness (Panamanians often use it as a universal cure-all for congestion, coughs, or even minor skin irritations).
A: The kid is coming down with a cold, his chest feels tight. B: Rub some vick on him at night, that will clear it up.
