Thera-Med Universal Cold Packs</font></p> <p><font face="Arial" size="2">The Cold Pack eases my aches, pains, burns and sprains. Love it!</font></p> <p><span class="rkr"><font face="Arial" size="2">If asked for 10 words with which I would describe myself, klutz would be on that list. I’m always spraining something or cutting myself while cooking or doing crafts. And I burn myself a few times a week on the fireplace, curling iron, or steam from the microwave. The burns are the pits because they hurt and throb constantly with no relief. Only cold and time help to ease the pain. My husband purchased the <b>Thera-Med Universal Cold Pack</b> for me when I broke my wrist, but it gets the most use to soothe burns.<br> <br> The Cold Pack is used for reducing pain and swelling. The main section which contains the cooling gel is about 10 inches in length and 5 inches wide. One of the ends of the flexibly vinyl pack has a 12-inch, H-shaped strap which is covered on the underside with soft Velcro. There are four scratchy Velcro pieces on the front of the main section to which the straps are fastened. So if I hurt my kneecap I would wrap the main section of the pack around the kneecap then wrap the strap around the back of my leg and then stick the end of the strap to the scratchy parts of the Velcro so that it is held in place. The Cold Pack and strap together are over 20 inches in length and long enough to fit around nearly any knee, elbow, or ankle.<br> <br> The Cold Pack should be frozen for at least 2 hours before the first use. Mine is stored in the freezer so it’s ready whenever it’s needed. The gel doesn’t freeze solid so you can smoosh it around and wrap it easily around the affected area. I like that I can take it to bed with me and not worry about it dripping or leaking like a baggie of ice would. It does sweat a bit after hitting the warmer air but not excessively where you have to worry about it ruining bedding or furniture.<br> <br> It’s super cold direct from the freezer so a cloth or clothing should be placed between it and skin if used directly from the freezer. Within 10 minutes it warms up enough so that it’s not painfully cold but after a half hour it doesn’t feel cold enough for me. However, doctors recommend only 20-30 minutes of therapy every 2 hours so it works just how the doctor ordered.<br> <br> The Cold Pack works really well for the burns I get on my hands from my klutzy acts. It can be folded in half and secured with the straps to make a taco to stick my burnt fingers in. This really helps to soothe the pain so I can get some relief and sleep.<br> <br> <b>Warning</b><br> Cold shouldn’t be used by people with circulatory problems unless prescribed by a physician. Don’t apply to broken skin. Discontinue use if COLD PACK leaks. If condition persists - consult your physician.<br> <br> <b>Recommended: </b>Yes <a href="http://lindsay-co.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=ML&Product_Code=TH10120&Category_Code=THCP">Order a Small Universal Cold Pack NOW! </a></font></span></p> <p><font face="Arial" size="3"><b><font color="#FF0000">Review Number 2</font><br> Full Review: </b></font><b><img id="str4" alt="rating" src="http://lindsay-co.com/Merchant2/graphics/00000001/5_stars.gif" width="54" height="10"></b></p> <span class="xkr"><font face="Arial" size="4">Durable, Flexible, and COLD!</font><br> </span> <div align="left"> <table cellSpacing="0" cellPadding="0" border="0"> <tbody> <tr> <td vAlign="top"><font face="Arial" size="2">Pros</font></td> <td vAlign="top"> <ul> <li><span class="rkr"><font size="2" face="Arial">Flexible and soft, good velcro straps, lots of cooling power</font></span></li> </ul> </td> </tr> <tr> <td vAlign="top"><font face="Arial" size="2">Cons</font></td> <td vAlign="top"> <ul> <li><span class="rkr"><font size="2" face="Arial">A little too cold to apply directly to skin.

After some time in the freezer they have a lot of cooling power. They are not chemical packs - you need to put them in the freezer. They are reusable.<br> <br> I've used these cold packs in several places on my body: wrists, ankles, forearms, my back... and they are a longtime favorite.<br> <br> They have enough length, including the straps, to reach around a thigh, but probably not an entire torso. The pack itself is about 10 inches long and 4 or 5 inches wide, so it covers a pretty good area. It can completely encircle a wrist or ankle no problem. The dual straps make it easy to attach to various places. The gel is soft but not completely liquidy; it molds to your body easily.<br> <br> It takes a while for them to get completely cold. Probably over an hour in the freezer. Once they are frozen up, they have a LOT of cooling power. I find them too cold to put directly on my skin. I usually put some cloth in between.<br> <br> Tip: I have cut the toes out of a pair of tube socks and I use the sock as a sleeve for my arm or ankle before putting the cold pack on. This keeps my skin from freezing but still allows the full cooling power to penetrate over time.<br> <br> Great cold pack overall. With two of these, you should be pretty much covered. Every home and office should have a pair in the freezer for aches, pains, & injuries.<br> <br> <b>Recommended: </b>Yes <a href="http://lindsay-co.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=ML&Product_Code=TH10120&Category_Code=THCP">Order a Small Universal Cold Pack NOW! </a></font></span></p> <p> </td> <td width="10"> </td> </tr> </table> </div> </td> </tr> </table> </center> </div> <div align="center"> <center> <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td><img border="0" src="http://lindsay-co.com/images/Banners/Image21.gif" width="760" height="100"></td> </tr> </table> </center> </div> </body> </html>
