MicaelaF31 :

How do you manage to work with this? Do you qualify for disability? I’m sorry, friend.

Sara_Loves_Music 🎶 :

A good old fashioned hot water bottle. Or a wheat bag

ouijaselephant :

Just an Amazon heating pad but I also buy the ones that stick to your underwear it helps when I’m working and it truly helps! the brand is “ThermaCare”

Stephanie Hall :

I have a deep tub and when I'm in a bad flare I soak in Epsom salt baths for hours and just keep adding hot water. I also have an electric blanket thats a throw blanket size and I wrap that around my stomach. I got my blanket off Amazon.

Amber Lauren :

I remember going through a flare up with stomach pain. I had a heating pad on my stomach, heated blanket, 6-7 blankets cause I was always cold through my fevers. Then getting hot flashes so a fan would have to be on me. Worst days ever.

Workingmomma40 :

Hot shower as hot as you can take it right on your stomach helps alot !! Heating pads never helped me and I have tried many lol

Jessica Cox :

I have Crohn’s disease and I use an electric heat pack, it’s the best invention ever!

Savannah | Chronic Illness 💜✨ :

L I have a heating pad on a band. It wraps around and holds like a fanny pack

Nicole | KindMindHealing :

I skipped the heating pads and invested in a sauna blanket 😅

🇨🇦 Cramp_my_style :

I have endometriosis and ulcerative colitis so I basically live with my heating pads. Sunbeam has excellent ones and you can get them on Amazon. If you can find that extra large ones it’s a worth the money .

_sassydaizie_ :

I hate you cute too

delcarmen914 :

😅Midol the medication that women use for period cramps makes a stick on heating pad

MimaC 🇬🇺 :

They have the microwaveable ones and some of them smell like lavender.. but why not use plug in heating pad. That’s what I use

MA♥️ :

this is because of ulcerative clotis???

Em :

Get a magic bag! It’s basically an 11.5 inch by 11.5 inch rice pad. Put a towel over it and the heat will last for a couple hours without burning you

KRiSDUH 🌺 :

I had burns on my stomach from a heating pad when I was doing bad 😵‍💫😵‍💫

lynnlamothegenx :

buy one!! blanket works good too

Bonnie Raabe :

a weighted heating pad is my best friend for stomach pains for my crohns disease

blackkitten0507 :

the best heating pad is my cat ❤️

shay.braidsandfades :

I like these because you can wear them under sweat pants or a hoodie and no one sees it. I’ll wear it to the grocery store or walking my dog and it’s rechargeable and you can set a timer for the heat / there’s a massages setting. Literally a life saver

crohnssurvivor(Sara)📚 :

Try Therma care heat patches! That way you don't have to worry about it moving on you!
