Guest guest Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 Hi Jeanie, I think witch hazel compresses are good. After my 2nd son's birth my midwife suggested this to help alleviate the swollen tissue and blood vessels. Her assistant suggested soaking a feminine pad and placing in a ziploc in the freezer for a while, then applying. Although I think it works o.k. even if it's not cold - it's just a little more soothing for swollen tissue/vessels if cold. Also, an herbal tonic made of nettles helps with vessel support. You can brew at home, add boiling water to nettles and steep for something like 6 hours I think. If you're interested I can dig up the instructions from my midwife.
