Heating pad??

So my back is killing me! Is it, okay to use a heating pad on my back?

As long as you do it briefly, yes. My physical therapist used to use one for me for my sciatica. She kept it on for about 15-20 min and it was wonderful.

*pregnancy related sciatica, with my last pregnancy.

@magcaw thanks, I knew there must be some sort of limit, how do you know you have pregnancy sciatica? What are the symptoms?
