Elbow and Knee Ice Pack - Cold Ice Sleeve with Reusable Gel & Cold Therapy Compression for Knee, Shin Splints, Calf Strain, Flexible Ice Pack forTennis Elbow, Tendinitis (Medium (Pack of 1), Blue)

This product is well made, easy to put on and off, easy to move when wearing and gives immediate relief. I bought knee and ankle sized, and the sizing chart was accurate for me. The wrap is icy cold for 5-10 minutes, then begins to warm up, but I found it remains cool for about 45 minutes. I broke an ankle last fall and I wish I'd had several of these to help with swelling back then. If you are recovering from surgery or have a great deal of swelling which requires constant icing, I'd buy several of these so you can swap them out. So much easier than ice packs or some of the other Velcro wraps. Only con might be difficult to use with a cast, but absolutely awesome once cast is removed.

Did hours of research looking for a long compress, a comfortable one, and one that is snug for my fractured humerus at my shoulder and bone fragment. I chose this one and received it yesterday (2/8/25). I love it. In fact, it works so well and is so comfortable that I use it 2x/day.I pull up so it's from my elbow to my armpit for 20 mins. (while separately holding a smaller cold pak from my armpit to my shoulder), put it back in the freezer for 30 mins, then put it on from my elbow to wrist. I do have to pinch it with a clip at my wrist, though, to tighten it up.Buying 2 of them would be a good idea to cover my arm from my wrist to my armpit at once. Too bad the company doesn't have a compress that is much longer.I have very long, thin arms. Thus, ordered a Small.

So i measured and got a medium for my knee and it for sure is true to size. Its true to size to the measurement chart but also super stretchy so I wouldnt worry if youre like in-between sizes. Its very comfortable and I have tried both the heat and icy purposes of it over the course of a few days so I feel I have a good feel on it. But first things first I have the logo fliped on the bottom of my leg in the photo so dont be fooled there is a logo on it!I read the reviews on it saying the icy feel fades too fast but for me I found them cold for at least 30 minutes if you let them chill in the freezer for the full 4 hours it says to in the instructions which is kinda of the max of what you're usually supposed to ice an injury so it worked for me. It definitely helped the swelling from my running injury and I felt the snug, jelly, 360° fit definitely helped better than my shin split icy wrap with the straps esspecially since I was able to walk without it slipping down my leg and I was able to lay down without any velcro sticking to blankets. AAA+ for the ice for me!The heat was actually pretty tricky for me but also super nice? So the instructions say todo 30 second increments in the microwave but I usually end up resetting it 2 and a half times while flipping it to get the ideal heat but if I set it straight up for 1 minute its almost too hot so thats odd. Anyways like most things you microwave the inside gets WAY hotter than the outside so dont just go off touching the top when testing it Id recommend sticking ur hand inside before sliding it on. I will also say the heat fades in about 10 ish minutes and my guess is because my knee is bending which expands the gel which leads it to cooling off faster but I can generally get another few minutes by sliding the sleeve around to the side that was under my knee because its typically a little warmer for longer. But yeah I usually end up reheating this very often so be prepared. The upside is during the heat session my knee is literally so comfortable and it really pinpoints the whole injury which is way better than my hot watter bag I used to use. Id give the heat a C+ only because it cools off fast.Over all I totally recommend these for the diversity of use, the comfort, and the ability to wear this while cooking, walking and laying down without worry of slippage or velcro impeding any of those activities. Definitely a must have for any runner with a chance of knee injury!

Used for severe tennis elbow injury...and I don't even play tennis...lol BOTH hot and cold aspects gave me great results and over a couple of months this product (along with anti inflammatory meds) made the difference in a significant reduction in pain and overall improved arm mobility. THANK YOU TOLACCEA!!Also, I was given their Arthritis Ice Glove for testing/review purposes.....Another OUTSTANDING quality product that will have a great benefit for anyone suffering from arthritis joint pain, tightness, or cramping in your hand(s).For me this worked better with the heat aspect and even after 30 seconds in the microwave....this gets HOT!!The refrigerator and/ or freezer options also are quite effective, but was not my preference.My only 2 minor cons of the product would be.1. Maybe make the velcro wrap a little less intense as it is like industrial strength velcro that I think would hold the spaceship together and can be difficult to undo at times.2. Finger tips are a little to long in that you are not able to bend the fingers much to be able to work with them and still be able to go about your day.Other than that this is great effective well made product that I would highly reccomend.
