Lil’ Drug Store Products rolls out CyroStat

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa Lil’ Drug Store Products on Monday announced the launch of CryoStat, a hemorrhoid treatment that uses cold therapy to reduce swelling.

“Cold therapy helps provide analgesia by reducing blood flow and reducing cellular metabolism, as well as by decreasing sensory nerve conductivity and sensitivity,” stated Bartley Pickron, colon and rectal surgeon at Methodist Hospital & the Woman’s Hospital of Texas and Lil’ Drug Store Products spokesman. “Cold therapy also reduces tissue swelling and edema by producing local vasoconstriction.”

The cold therapy pack is surrounded by a soft cloth that is disposable and convenient without the use of gels or creams.
