can we use mineral ice?
ive had a knot in the middle of my back next to my spine for a whole week
No amount of rubbing or massaging has helped
the other night i used some mineral ice and i felt better, but then i panicked, wondering if i shouldve used it
have you guys heard of anything about using topicals like this?

I'm pretty sure it says on the packaging that pregnant women should not use it.

Re: can we use mineral ice?
Mineral ice has not been formally assigned a category by the FDA. There are no studies. Therefore, it is unclear whether or not you can use it. I would not freak over using it one time. I would hold off until you speak to your OB though.

And I took Pepto Bismol once. My DD is doing just fine!
For your back, here is what I would do-
Ice 20 on, 40 off, massage while ice is off.
Or heat 15 on, 15 off.
Trust me, when you are 100% responsible for the well being of the baby inside you, you freak out easily. But unless we are talking Class X or regular use, I wouldn't freak out.
