NatraCure Replacement Gel Packs for Cold Therapy Socks - 4-Piece Set (2 Full-Length, 2 Half-Size) - Blue, Reusable, Extra Ice Packs for Injuries, Pain Relief

Worked well with the socks to help prevent neuropathy during chemo

Does what it says on the tin. Could be a bit cheaper though.

I am a small person, the larger pack fits nicely in the small of my back and brings some temporary relief to a low back disc problem. The smaller works well also as my problem is only on one side. I have tried to find a thicker version of the larger one as when sitting it helps to fill the space between the natural curve of the low back and the chair. Also because of the thinness they don’t stay cold long.

Love, love these. I can’t sleep without them. They stay cold for a good length of time. I read a review that said they gave her frost bite. They go in the fridge, not the freezer. I have had the socks these go in for 3 years wearing them every night. The cold packs were not staying cold for very long and knew it was time for replacement.

I have been using these socks and the mittens from the same company for several years to treat neuropathy. I warm them in the microwave and have found that they decrease pain. They do eventually leak from repeated heating. This is my third replacement set in two years of daily use, which seems reasonable to me. The gel packs in the mittens are thick and hold heat longer than the thinner packs in the socks. I'm curious why they are different and really wish the socks had thicker gel packs. Note - don't attempt to carry these through TSA security in airports! Due to the gel packs, they will be confiscated, which I learned the hard way! Better to pack them in checked luggage.
