When frozen, cold packs should not be applied directly to the skin for prolonged periods, to help prevent frostbite. Limit each application to 15–20 minutes at a time to protect your skin, and always use clean packs, washing reusable soothers according to the instructions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePrioritise self-care and seek professional guidance when you need it. If breastfeeding concerns such as persistent pain, a breast that stays red or swollen, fever or flu-like symptoms continue or worsen despite using hot and cold packs, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Carriwell","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47281982472369,"sku":"CRW-BSR","price":229.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0728\/9559\/4673\/files\/carriwell-breast-soother-1.jpg?v=1784522228","url":"https:\/\/pandylane.com\/products\/carriwell-breast-soother","provider":"Pandylane","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
