I think this may, for me still be mutulation because I only seem to find relif when I am in pain so I cover the ice in salt until my skin on my hand is nearly burnt off..I dont do this much anymore because its harder to hide and this isnt a habit im proud of. I dont want my baby to know about any of this.
