My kamar is paining a lot these days and I almost reached for volini out of habit, then stopped. Im 7 months pregnant. Is it ok to apply such gels or no? Wont take without asking, just want ur experience.
Try using a warm compress or a simple mustard oil massage with garlic for your backache. Gels like Volini have diclofenac which is usually not recommended during pregnancy. Stick to safe home remedies or ask your doctor for a safe ointment.
When I asked my consultant at Fortis about back pain relief, they strictly advised against using over-the-counter pain gels like Volini. The hospital physiotherapist suggested safe prenatal stretches instead. Please consult your doctor clearly before applying any medicine.
My gynac told me that pain gels containing nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like diclofenac should be avoided, especially in the third trimester, as they can affect the baby's heart. Always check the ingredients and use only paracetamol-based creams if prescribed.
My saas was totally against using any chemical gels for back pain and made me use hot water bags instead. Actually, pain relief gels contain chemicals that can absorb into the skin, so it's better to avoid them unless your doctor says yes.
Oh, is Volini not safe? I have chronic back pain and use it quite often, so this is really good to know before I start trying. What do you all use instead for severe backaches?
