The incidence of perineal scars after a pregnancy is high, either related to an episiotomy or to spontaneous perineal tears. These perineal scars can result in acute pain but also in chronic pain for some women. Medical treatment includes level 1 and 2 analgesics and, even for a few women, level 3 analgesic. The MILTAĀ® uses photons which are emitted with low intensity in the visible and near infrared combining 5 physical principles to reduce pain : 1- The NPCL (Nano-Pulsed Cold Laser) emissions in coherent infrared light, at 905 nanometers; 2- Non-coherent emissions, pulsed by trichromatic RGB CSM diodes (400 to 650 nm); 3- Continuous non-coherent infrared emission monochromatic diodes at 905 nm; 4- A constant circular magnetic field (200 millitesla) equivalent to the terrestrial magnetic field and 5- The effect of magnetic tunnel which potentiates the light propagation. MILTAĀ® treatment has been shown to be effective in various managements of pain, but has never been used in pain related to perineal scars. This randomized controlled trial aims at assessing MILTA vs placebo to reduce pain related to perineal scars after pregnancy.
