- Flexible Reusable Gel Packs for Neck, Wrist, Arm, Back and Shoulder Pain Relief - Versatile Hot or Cold Gel Packs for Injuries, Sore Muscles or Toothache Pain Relief, Blue, 9" x 12", 1 Pack

Excellent, reusable ice packs! Very durable and maintain flexibility when frozen. Great for bumps, bruises strains and sprains and for anyone with neck or back pain!

Great gel pack. I now have 4 of these so I always have at least 1 or 2 ready to use. Never tried them hot.

Used for cold only. Had a few injuries and need flexible large surface pads. These are not heavy in weight for me, a plus, and do not take up a lot of room in freezer. They get really cold. Worth the money and would purchase again.

If you haven’t used ice packs before, they provide extremely rapid and effective pain relief. Get over the ick factor: they really work! This one is a good size for hip or knee surgery and stays cold much longer than the ones made of opaque blue plastic with removable covers because it has much more gel in it. Do use an old T-shirt or 1-2 old dishtowels between your skin and the ice pack to protect your skin. Shape it to fit. You can keep it in place and prolong the cold by wrapping a bath towel around yourself over the pack. Left in the freezer for a long time - days - it will get very stiff and take a while to soften - just give it time. Get 2-3 packs so you can rotate them in and out of the freezer if you’re in a lot of pain. I also like my ice machine but these packs are actually better the first week after surgery; they’re colder than the machines. And much less of a hassle than the machine. Between these and my pain meds, I was able to keep post-surgical pain to an entirely manageable level.

This works great when I have aches and pains in my knees, elbows, or shoulders. It stays cold long and it's flexible so it easily wraps around my body. For the price, I think this gel pack is a great deal.

As I get older, there are way too many occasions where I need a cold pack for various reasons, and even a few instances where a medical procedure requires one to reduce swelling. I have tried lots of sizes and products made with a variety of coverings and types of gel, and this one from Accurate Manufacturing is by far the best that I have found. Those that come with a sleeve seem to often have reduced coldness, and wrapping a towel around this one gives me the perfect amount of coldness for the allotted time to be used. It is often still cold enough that I can move it to another spot that needs some relief before refreezing the pack. The gel is much more flexible than other packs tried, and I can always bend this pack to completely touch the whole place where it is needed, plus it stays in place if I do not move around. This size is great for folding over my knee, or placing alongside my hip to help with any swelling or pain. Since I often need a pack more than once a day, I have several of these so that one is always cold and waiting to make my day much better. The first one was bought years ago, and it is still working just as well as my newer ones.

I have severe nerve pain and I have spent every day for the past four months on ice packs for several hours each a day. I have purchased many different brands and sizes of ice packs from amazon and Walgreens and consider myself to be an unfortunate product expert at this point. Perhaps because the outer material is not as thick as other ice packs or perhaps the gel material is better and/or there is more gel in the pack , whatever the reason, this icepack gets the coldest and stays cold for the longest period of time. It is also very flexible so it feels more comfortable than other ice packs which can be too firm and painful/uncomfortable to lay on when using for one's back. It also appears to get cold faster than some of the others that I have purchased. I am planning to buy two more as this is definitely my go-to ice pack. I have owned this product for just about one month and I use it multiple times a day and lay on it and have not had any leaking or splitting at the seams -- It is holding up just fine. No complaints and only praise for this product thus far. The only ice pack that stays colder longer and lasts longer are those that are made of plastic to be used in coolers and while i use them in a pinch on my arms or legs, one cannot use them for lower or upper back nerve pains. UPDATE: I have been using these ice packs for almost five months now without a problem - no splitting or leaking whatsoever. I own three of the 9x12 size and one of the even larger size. I use them multiple times a day which is why i have so many -- I have several ice packs to be sure that there is always a cold replacement when I need one (sometimes I forget to put a spent ice pack back in the freezer). I am still delighted with this product. While I would rather not have need of these ice packs, I am thrilled to find a product that performs as it should.

I've suffered with chronic migraines for over 35 years. I know . . . it's the pits! :-) Along with needing darkness, quiet, no sounds, and no smells when I have a migraine . . I found over the years, that COLD on the forehead and over the eyes helped a lot! Family and friends, feeling so badly for me, and wanting to help would give me a cold pack that they just happen to have in their freezer, knowing that cold helps me when I hurt so bad. Needless to say, every person had a different brand of gel pack. I have quite a collection of gel packs from various manufacturers. My wife sees a chiropractor and noticed some gel packs for sale that looked worth trying. She purchased two and brought them home for me to try. It just so happens that they were Accurate Manufacturing Comfort Gel Packs. I thought nothing of it for quite a long time. I was just glad to have a couple more gel packs to rotate in and out of the freezer so that I could maintain the "freezing cold" on my forehead. This is what I discovered from using the different brands. I have 4, brand X blue gel packs that are quite thin, not much gel. They only keep the "cold" for a few minutes. Never "freezing cold". Not good. I have another pack that is filled with a white colored substance of some sort. This substance doesn't transfer the cold to the body very well at all. This gel also just separates into small globs and the cold is gone quickly. Again, not good. The Accurate Manufacturing Comfort Gel Packs are quite different. From the freezer, the gel has a thick stiffness to it. It still allows you to squeeze it around inside the pack and form to whatever you need to cool. It does NOT separate. It stays exactly where you put it. The pack stays "freezing cold" for 15 - 25 minutes, depending on how and where you are applying it to your body. After that time, it remains "cold" for up to 1 hour before needing to put it back in the freezer. The fastest way to get the pack back to "freezing cold" is to put it in a freezer that has a fan blowing cold air on to the Gel Pack. Most refrigerator/freezers operate this way. The Gel Pack will refreeze even faster if you can set it on a freezer "rack" (not a shelf) with no obstruction of the blowing cold from the top and the bottom of the gel pack. Standard upright freezers and chest freezers that don't have fans take much longer, but eventually get it to "freezing cold". If you don't need "freezing cold" ASAP, as I do . . . then it works just fine. The end result is the same. My first two Comfort Gel Packs were the smaller size that just fit over the forehead. They work great! I just recently broke a bone in my foot and decided I wanted something bigger. I purchased 4 of these 9X12 Comfort Gel Packs. They are fantastic! I'll never have to worry about running out of "freezing cold" for my migraines ever again. A word of caution. The Comfort Gel Packs transfer the cold so well, that when coming out of the freezer, they can freeze burn your skin, as if you were touching dry ice. To get safe cold to the forehead (or wherever you most need it), moisten a kitchen towel or cloth with tap water. Then, wring out the access water. Next, wrap the Comfort Gel Pack in the moist towel and place it on the desired area. That's it. For me, they are "tried and true". I dare you to find a better product. Good luck with that. Enjoy the Comfort Gel Pack!
