Flexitol during pregnancy

[blossomspringy]

Hi has anyone used flexitol heel balm during pregnancy? Info online isn’t clear why this may not be safe. Really want smooth feet again!

I've been using it daily for the last week, 38 weeks pregnant! Had no idea it might not be safe.

ETA pregnancy has made my heels horrendous and I feel so much better now they're improving but I'll stop if it dangerous.

honestly, I think it must be ok and I think I am just going to use it. I can’t find anywhere that says anything about the actual reasons for it not being safe and it is a topical cream so I don’t see why it wouldn’t be.. I just saw on eucerin website they recommend urea based products for dry skin so must be ok!

Sorry to be clear eucerin website is recommending these products for dry skin during pregnancy. Sometimes these posts attract a helpful pharmacist/doctor so was hoping someone could just clarify!

Ah, yes, I had a little Google and could only find warnings as in 'ask your doctor', which I think is just them covering themselves. I'd just be careful washing hands well after applying to avoid accidental ingestion or it getting somewhere it shouldn't.
