I'm assuming you want to do it to take the pain away, right? I'm not sure what would happen. I am surprised I never thought of it though. For myself I wouldn't hesitate, but you should read the whole package first to see if they advise against it. If you do try it let me know how it works.

it says "Do not use - more than directed - for more than 7 days unless directed by a physician or health care provider" well iv put hand sanitizer on cuts so maybe this would be ok, cuz I know hand sanitizer has some bad chemicals but it's never done anything.

And you use it in your mouth, so if it was harmful to ingest or get into your blood stream then obviously you couldn't put it in your mouth, right? I would go for it myself, but you do what you think is right.

I did it., at first it burned a lil but I think it burned cuz I touched it cuz it would burn when I touch it before I did it, it didn't really do anything maybe numb a lil but eh that's pretty much it then I took it off and now when I touch it or rub it it does not hurt so maybe it works I guess but it dose feel better
