Chilling relief: ice packs tested to ease pain after hemorrhoid surgery

NCT ID NCT07186348

Summary

This study looked at whether applying an ice pack after hemorrhoid surgery helps patients feel better. Researchers compared 429 patients who had surgery, with one group using a 10-minute ice pack application afterward. They wanted to see if the ice helped reduce pain scores and the need for strong painkillers like opioids during recovery.
