Using Ice and Cold Packs
July 11, 2022

Topic Overview

Ice and cold packs can relieve pain, swelling, and inflammation from injuries and other conditions, such as arthritis.

 

Types of ice and cold packs

 Ice towel. Wet a towel with cold water and squeeze it until it is just damp. Fold the towel, place it in a plastic bag, and freeze it for 15 minutes. Remove the towel from the bag and place it on the injured or sore area.

Ice pack. Put about 0.5 kg (1 lb) of ice in a plastic bag or ice pack you buy at the store. Add enough water to barely cover the ice. Squeeze the air out of the bag and seal it. Wrap the bag in a wet towel and apply to the affected area.

Cold packs.

 

You can also buy cold packs that can be reused. Store them in your freezer. Some of them are designed to wrap around an injured area, such as an arm or knee.

 

Using an ice or cold pack

Apply an ice or cold pack to the injured or sore area at least 3 times a day for as long as you have pain, swelling, and inflammation. For the first 72 hours, ice for 10 minutes, once an hour. After that, use ice for 15 to 20 minutes, 3 times a day: in the morning, in the late afternoon after work or school, and about one-half hour before bedtime. Also, ice after any prolonged activity or vigorous exercise.

 

Always keep a cloth between your skin and the ice pack, and press firmly against all the curves of the affected area. Do not apply ice for longer than 15 to 20 minutes at a time, and do not fall asleep with the ice on your skin.

 

Commercial cold packs are too heavy and bulky for use on or around the eye. Be careful around the eye to prevent a chemical burn to the eye if a pack leaks.

FAQ

  • Q1: Can COVID-19 nucleic acid test swab be replaced with cotton swabs?

  • A: You bought your own kit for testing the new crown. You dare not use his throat swab and want to use cotton swabs instead. In this case, it is not possible, because the thing he gives has a mesh on it that is easy to store and cotton swabs are not convenient. So you'd better be equipped, and you'd better go to the hospital and ask the doctor to test you.

  • A: We accept payment by T/T in advance, Western Union, L/C.
