Resters Choice Ice Pack for Injuries Reusable - (Standard Large: 11x14.5) for Hip, Shoulder, Knee, Back - Hot & Cold Compress for Swelling, Bruises, Surgery - Heat & Cold Therapy

Can use for ice pack in cooler, pain relief hot or cold. Definitely use a towel with it hot because it is molten when heated up. 1 downside is the material can stain easily if the microwave is dirty.

This is the coldest, most flexible & nicely sized ice pack Ive ever used! Covers a large area & you need to put a towel around it (I use a large dish towel) so it doesnt freeze to you! A great buy!

Easy to use & they don’t take long to re freeze

My girlfriend was the one that suggested that I get this product. We both have back and hip pain. It really helps a lot. I would recommend this product to anyone who has this. Thanks

Its not going to do more for pain relief than any other source of cold will (if I need assistance with pain, thats what pain pills of various kinds are for), but sometimes you just need to ice your muscles or tendons down and this works well for that. During spring my achilles tendons were giving me issues, so I threw this thing in the freezer and then after it froze I pulled it out, laid down with a thin sheet over the affected area and laid the ice pack over both of my legs and let the cold do its thing. That helped me with getting my tendon inflammation down so that I could carefully stretch my legs and work them back into no longer having inflamed tendons. Along the way this product did what I needed it to, what it was supposed to, and is a very good ice pack. I wouldnt use it for raw meat at a barbeque for example, but thats what cheap plastic ice packs are for. Wash those in some cleaning product, or rinse them with rubbing alcohol or whatever and theyre back to sanitized. These things are made of durable fabric and have a gel that freezes to a near-solid state, so even while theyre fully frozen they still kind of malleable. If I recall right it also has heating instructions on it, but I havent used it as a heating pad so I cant really say anything other than: I expect it to work for such with a similar level of excellence. Follow the instructions it comes with, and are printed on it, and it will serve you well for its intended uses.

After shoulder surgery I was going through freezer bags like crazy. This is a great product and great price.

Easy to use and works great for relief of pain where cold is needed... Wraps easily around legs.

Its limited on what you can use it on, but for larger areas, you cant beat this. Great for knees. Just wish it came with a way to fasten like with velcro or some kind of elastic band.

My husband had total knee replacement recently and a friend who is a physical therapist gave us hers to try. I bought 2 myself (freeze one/use one). Because they were so easy to use and helpful (decreased swelling = decreased pain) he actually iced his knee more often and for a longer period of time. The cooling system he came home with from the hospital was very inconvenient so he didnt like using it. He did use the velcro wrap they sent him home with to keep this ice pack in place. It conformed around his knee and could use one on the bottom and one of the top if he felt he needed additional cooling. It conformed nicely around his knee but I can see where it would do the same around other parts of the body should it be needed. Two friends also had knee replacement surgery and ordered the packs because we liked them so well. Havent used them for heat application so cant speak to that.

I use these for my shoulders, elbows, knees and ankles. I love the product so much I have bought it three times! I always have one ready in the freezer and can swap them out quickly. I had a torn rotator cuff and these were ESSENTIAL to my recovery. Playing basketball on concrete for 35 years has done some damage to my knees, and these ice packs/freezer packs are LIFESAVERS for my knees. Highly recommended!
