Re: icy hot?

  • Personally I wouldn't.  Your skin absorbs anything it can.  And I'm not sure about the intense heat.  I'd maybe try a hot pad or something along those lines.  But that's just me.
  • i got a good to go from my doc, but its for my foot, not sure about the back though maybe call in the morning

  • I use something like Icy Hot. I use BioFreeze....I know you can get it at CVS. It is a little more expensive but it works great and you can use it while you are prego. My husband gave me the go ahead and he is an ob/gyn doc so I think I am okay......but you can never be too sure so I dont' think there is any harm in using it once and then calling your doc's office tomorrow morning and just make sure. Goodluck! I hope you feel better!
  • my chiro recommended i use it for my hip and my ob said that was no problem
