Nowadays, many people exercise regularly, which may lead to sprains and bruises. Applying pain relieving cream to the injured area can effectively alleviate the pain. During pregnancy, women may also experience joint and limb pain, so they also want to apply painkillers. So, can pregnant women use pain relief cream for hand pain?
Pregnant women with hand pain should not use pain relievers because most pain relievers contain ingredients such as ice flakes and musk, which are very detrimental to pregnancy. If you must use pain relief cream, you also need to follow medical advice and choose products suitable for pregnant women.
Women are more prone to allergies during pregnancy. If there are papules, blisters, or itching on the local skin after applying pain relief cream, it indicates an allergy to the cream and the application needs to be stopped immediately. If the allergy symptoms are severe, anti allergy treatment should be carried out.
Pregnant women should not use pain relievers containing musk because musk has a strong blood activating effect. Exposure to musk can easily lead to miscarriage and premature birth. Usually, there are indications in the instructions of pain relief cream that pregnant women should not use. In addition, many pain relievers contain lead elements, and lead entering the pregnant woman's body can be very harmful to the fetus, and may even cause fetal deformities. Therefore, it is best for female friends not to apply painkillers during pregnancy.
