Support your postpartum comfort routine with the Postpartum Perineal Ice Pack – Reusable Hot & Cold Pad. The flexible gel pack fits inside a soft fabric cover and is designed for external use around the perineal area after childbirth.
Chill the pack for cooling comfort or warm it carefully according to the supplied instructions when heat therapy has been recommended by your healthcare professional.
