Question: Hi doc I just confirmed that I am pregnant 2days ago
I sprained my neck early this morning and went to the emergency room they gave me neck collar and pain relief Tramadoltizanidineand methyl salicylate ointment pls is it safe in pregnancy coz I read about it and found out its in class C of risk 
Pls which pain killer can I use because I am in pains Pls help  Thank you
Answer: Hi it would have been helpful to notify the doctor of your pregnancy status In this case kindly do not use the prescribed tramadol Paracetamol and the topical cream you were given will work fine in this case Just those 2 are okay It will also be good for you to try to register for antenatal services as soon as you can this will increase the quality of your pregnancy experience and ensure you come out healthier at the end with a healthy baby 
Take care
