The wood is soft , easily split , rich in resin , from which turpentine ( volatile component ) and rosin are produced . In the past , they lit the rooms with pine oil lamps or pine torches . Aye amber is pine resin . In medicine , turpentine is used in ointments against rheumatism and other joint diseases , and as a bath additive .
