Highlights
One of the potentially effective methods for relieving postpartum perineal pain is auricular acupressure.
Auricular acupressure in one study out of three studies had a significant effect on reducing postpartum perineal pain.
Two out of three studies reported no side effects of auricular acupressure for participants.
Therefore, auricular acupressure can be a simple, low-cost, and practical intervention to reduce postpartum perineal pain. However, future well-designed studies are needed to confirm the findings of this systematic review.
