Petroleum jelly, petrolatum, white petrolatum, soft paraffin or multi-hydrocarbon, is a semi-solidmixture of hydrocarbons originally promoted as a topical ointment for its healing properties.
Petroleum jelly was first noticed by oil well drillers . . . it came out of the crude oil and would build up on the adjacent equipment.
At some point an oil driller tried rubbing some on a bad abrasion or burn, and found that the wound healed much faster than before.
