Rubifacients are substances which irritate the skin, usually causing a stinging feeling, hotness, pain, and redness. The redness is due to increasing blood supply, which also explains the warm feeling. Increased blood supply carries more nutrients and, also, necessary chemicals to deal with the irritation. As rubifacients, unless the contact is accidental, are usually applied to painful areas, they are also called "counter irritants".
Besides, assuming that they are offering some benefit by increasing the body's immune responses to the affected area, and thus, to the original inflammation, they might also effect the nerve endings and pain receptors. After an initial increase of pain, the original pain level is often decreases.
Two examples of rubifacients:
Capsaicin, an active chemical of hot peppers (like chilli), is actually used in several kinds of pain relieving creams, lotions, and even stick on plasters, designed for muscle pains, arthritic pains.
Also, an old Arthritis remedy used fresh, stinging nettle to thrash the painful areas. Since, there are more less painful remedies today, that treatment probably lost a lot of its popularity.
