Having a Sitz Bath with The Plexa Pan

Step 1
Clean Your Plexa Pan with an antiseptic, making sure to rinse thoroughly.

Step 2
Place your Plexa Pan onto the open Water Closet with the seat lifted, or onto a 20-litre bucket that supports your weight. Test it by trying to move it from side to side to ensure it will stay in place and will not shift.

Step 3
Fill the Pan with 2.5 litres of warm water. Lukewarm water is highly recommended (Temperature of 36.5-40.5 C) for 10 to 15 mins 2 to 3 times per day. WARNING: DO NOT USE HOT WATER, to avoid discomfort, burns or disruption of surgical sutures.

Step 4
Add an appropriate amount of bath salt. You may add any medications recommended by your Doctor to the water.

Step 5
Sit on the Pan and lower your perineum to soak for 15 to 20 mins. You may elevate your legs by placing them on a footstool to make you more comfortable. Gently pat yourself dry with a clean cotton towel and clean the Pan as in step 1.
