Tiger Balm Red Ointment

This might be overreacting but this morning I seized my facet joint in my neck. After the physio I went to the pharmacist who recommended tiger balm due to ingredients in other anti inflammatories not being recommended for pregnancy. I got home and I've applied it about three times only to read the leaflet after and realise it states not to use when pregnant. Results online have been mixed, with some stating its fine to use and others being very firm with not touching it. So confused as the pharmacist said it was fine. Anyone else using it? I'm 20 weeks.
