My back n kamar pain is killing me these days, someone suggested a muscle relaxant. But im scared to take anything without asking. Planning to check with my doc but wanted to know if anyone took it.
Please don't take any muscle relaxants without checking with your doctor first. For normal backaches, try a warm water bag or a gentle massage at home. If the pain is too severe, let your gynac decide the medicine.
When I had severe leg cramps, my mother used to massage my legs with warm mustard oil. We never used any over-the-counter muscle relaxant pills because family elders always warned against them. It's safer to avoid pills unless your doctor prescribes them.
Oh god, please don't take it blindly! I would worry so much about how it affects the baby's development. Always call your gynac to ask if a specific medicine is safe, even if it's a common muscle spray.
With my PCOS history, I was always extra careful about what went into my body. Most muscle relaxants have active ingredients that aren't fully safe for the baby. I'd highly recommend calling your doctor to confirm before taking one.
I know how miserable body aches can feel, especially when you are already dealing with heavy morning sickness. But taking random muscle relaxants can be risky. Try a warm bath or ask your doctor for a safe pregnancy-approved gel.
Actually, muscle relaxants are generally not recommended during pregnancy, yaar. I had bad back pain too but my doctor strictly told me to avoid pills. Better to ask your doc before taking anything.
