The former 'Coronation Street' star joked she was feeling "fresh" after accidentally rubbing the pain relief and heat therapy product into her "special places".
She wrote on Twitter: "Note to self... do NOT accidentally get Deep Heat in your 'special places'... #fresh (sic)"
But one of Catherine's 'Strictly' co-stars, 'EastEnders' actress Emma Barton (Honey Mitchell) saw the funny side of the former cobbles favourite's eye-watering injury.
She tweeted: "You make me laugh so much!! (sic)"
The 35-year-old star's intimate injury didn't appear to put her off dancing though as she has been up bright and early ready to practice some moves.
She wrote: "I can't believe I'm going to say this... it's 5.20am... and all I can think about is dancing!!!!! God I've got the bug! Big time!!!!! (sic)"
Catherine was confirmed for the BBC Latin and ballroom show earlier this month, and admitted she always used to swerve dance classes during her younger years.
She said: "I'm thrilled to be a part of this year's 'Strictly Come Dancing'. I'm a huge fan of the show. It'll be my biggest challenge to date as I'm not much of a dancer, but I've always wanted to learn the skill and the time feels right! I'm nervous as hell but super excited to work with such talented professionals. Hold onto your jazz shoes... mine is sure to be a bumpy/clumsy/fun ride.
"I'm terrified and when I was at theatre school, I always swerved dance classes because I was so big. It's a real challenge for me."
