Philip purchased one jar of the balm, as he had some rashes on his back. When he finally got home, he asked his younger brother to help him apply the balm to the affected area. A few hours later, he started feeling some hot sensations in the affected area. Thinking the balm had started working, he decides to endure and ignore it. The hotness continued and Philip became really uncomfortable to the point that he could not sleep all night.
In the morning, he checked the affected part using a large mirror and discovered to his horror that the affected area had enlarged causing some brownness as a result of peeling of the skin. He managed to put on his shirt and went to church. By the following day, which was Monday, the affected area had enlarged more and the pain had become unbearable. He went to work but he could not concentrate on the job. When it was break time he complained to his boss and took the remainder of the day off.
To summarise it all, Philip spent 2 weeks away from work and N15,000 medical fees to cure himself. When he resumed work later and was asked what happened, he said the doctor told him that his skin was allergic to certain chemicals in the constituents of the balm he applied. For applying a balm of N100, he incurred a medical bill of N15,000, 2 weeks absence from work and a lot of pains and discomforts. The bible says "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge." Hosea 4:6
