However, here are a few tips to keep in mind:
Comfort: Some women may feel more comfortable with warm or lukewarm water, especially if they feel sensitive to temperature changes after surgery. Go with whatever feels best for you.
Gentle Soap: Use a gentle, fragrance-free soap to avoid any irritation to your skin, especially if your skin is more sensitive post-delivery.
Drying: Ensure your hands are dried thoroughly to avoid any chill if you’re more sensitive to cold after the surgery.
Overall, using cold water is safe and should not interfere with your recovery. Just prioritize comfort and hygiene.
