CROTCH HEATING PAD

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a crotch heating pad retaining the state closely attached to an affected part such as a wound in the crotch and sufficiently exhibiting the hyperthermic action. SOLUTION: The crotch heating pad 1 is composed of a heat storage body made of a gelatinized substance enclosed in a bag body 2. The bag body 2 is composed of two synthetic resin films layered on each other, whose peripheral edges 3 are heat-sealed. The bag body is formed in an approximately linearly symmetrical shape relative to the center line T, and approximately V-shaped slits 5 are formed along the center line T from both sides. The maximum length L in the direction of the center line T of the bag body 2 is set approximately same as the length D in the direction orthogonally crossing the center line T. When the pad is attached to the crotch, the pad is curved in such a way as to be easily folded along the slits 5 in the shape fitted to the crotch, so that the pad is stably retained in the state as closely attached to the affected part.
