How does the Belly Bandit V-Cool Hot & Cold Perineal Gel Pack Work?
The Belly Bandit V-Cool Hot & Cold Perineal Gel Pack is perfectly sized and uniquely shaped to comfortably give you either soothing warmth or cooling relief right where you need it most. Simply heat or freeze the gel pack, then place it in your undies (like you would wear a panty liner) to bring relief to your perineum and surrounding areas. You can wear the Belly Bandit V-Cool Hot & Cold Gel Pack off and on for 15-minute intervals to help reduce swelling and relax sore and healing muscles.
Why do I need the Belly Bandit V-Cool Hot & Cold Perineal Gel Pack?
The majority of vaginal births cause some degree of tearing or injury to the perineum and surrounding area. While more severe tears require stitches to help aid healing, most healthcare providers prescribe a simple regimen of time and rest to help these injuries heal properly. During this time, you can use perineal gel packs to help relieve pain, reduce swelling, alleviate discomfort and find relief for those sensitive areas. If you’re experiencing perineal pain, soreness, or even vaginal itching during your postpartum recovery, the Belly Bandit V-Cool Hot & Cold Perineal Gel Pack is a must-have!
Can I use this gel pack during pregnancy?
When it comes to perineal gel, pregnancy is not a disqualifier for use. The Belly Bandit V-Cool Hot & Cold Gel Pack is intended to help relieve perineal pain after pregnancy. However, some women have found it to be beneficial in helping treat perineal pain during pregnancy, too. Just be sure to always consult your physician about any pain you may be experiencing while pregnant. It could be a sign of an underlying condition or more serious health concern.
Can this gel pack be used postpartum?

Does this hot and cold gel pack provide pelvic pain relief?
Sure! This gel pack helps provide targeted hot or cold therapy to reduce postpartum pain in your perineum, vaginal area and pelvis.
Can this hot and cold perineal gel be used for C-section relief?

How do I wash these gel packs?
It’s best to wash your Belly Bandit V-Cool Hot & Cold Perineal Gel Pack by hand using gentle soap and warm water, then placing each gel pack flat on a towel to air dry. Make sure the packs are completely dry before heating or freezing them.
