If you've ever suffered from a skin condition caused by bacteria or fungus like jock itch, you know how frustrating it can be. The constant discomfort, redness and flakiness can be a lot to bear. But not to worry, if you’re looking for a way to protect your skin from such things, you’re in luck.

The Puriya Tea Tree Oil Balm is a highly-rated ointment that’s made to soothe itchy, burning, stinging and irritated skin caused by sweat and moisture. So, if you suffer from athlete’s foot or jock itch, this could be the product for you.

So what about the ingredients? It’s more on the natural side. It’s made with beeswax, eucalyptus oil and tea tree oil, among a few other things. Tea tree oil stands out here because it has anti-fungal properties and is often used to treat athlete's foot. In addition, the balm itself is lightweight and “won’t clog your pores,” according to the product's description.

And many shoppers appear to trust the product. In fact, the balm is listed as the No. 2 treatment for jock itch on Amazon and it has over 2,500 five-star reviews.

One reviewer compared the balm to other treatments for jock itch.

"I buy a lot of stuff on amazon but never write reviews except this time. Listen this stuff really works. I am a physician and have been treating jock itch on myself for over 4 years. I have been rotating between lamasil (terbinafine), lotrimin (Clotrimazole), and tinactin (Tolnaftate) with limited success. I have been very compliant with putting the medication on 2 times a day. My jock itch never went away and I was hesitant to try systemic (oral) antifungals because of the possible side effects. This has definitely improved my skin within a couple weeks. This stuff is expensive but it works."

Another reviewer said that the balm effectively helped improve their daughter's eczema.

"Ok, I really didn’t think this smaller container was going to show any results. I’ve tried tons of creams ,lotions, steroid creams for my daughters eczema. Nothing ever gave results as this product did. It’s a bit pricey,but well worth it. Thank you so much for giving my daughter relief from her eczema. Everyday her eczema drastically improves. It should be called miracle balm. "
