Can I use ThermaCare over scars?
As with any heating product, it is not recommended to use ThermaCare if you have any condition that causes a reduction in circulation or skin sensitivity. If you have these conditions and wish to use ThermaCare, consult your physician. Also there is an increased risk of burning if heat is applied to skin that is broken or damaged (such as a scar) or any area of the body where heat cannot be felt. Heat products also should not be used with medicated lotions, creams or ointments or on persons who cannot remove the product themselves (including young children).
