Abstract
Many women suffer from perineal pain following chilbirth injury, and this often has numerous negative consequences for them (Steen and Cooper, 1998). The majority of women in the UK will be advised to take regular baths and paracetamol (Sleep, 1990) to ease this pain. Some women will be offered icepacks, which are produced by either freezing a normal saline sachet, a water-filled finger from a latex glove, or even better, a condom!
