If you know how to use paraffin wax at home then you can, but remember for the temperature. It is used for post fracture and post surgical rehab purpose depending on the cases.
If you have any allergic reaction for the skin then do not use it,
Its better to consult physiotherapist and let know about the condition for what you are going to use it for.
