Summary
This study tested whether inserting a cold tube into the vagina can reduce pelvic floor muscle pain in women. 165 women with this type of pain were randomly assigned to use either a cold tube or a room-temperature tube. Researchers measured pain levels right after the treatment and two weeks later. The goal was to see if cold therapy offers quick relief before starting standard physical therapy.
