The brand name of the pads which were referred to for hemm. are TUCKS,
speaking personally, though I can't remember, I think they worked quite well.
 They have the witch hazel in the fluid they are soaked in.  The hospitals
used to also have a mixture that had cocaine in it to put on the qauze to
dull the pain, That too worked great!!!
