【Tips for  Correctly Using Ice Packs】

Hello everyone! Today, I'm going to share with you a life tip -- how to use an ice pack correctly, so that you can be more handy when you need a cold compress!

First of all, the choice of ice pack is important. There are different types of ice packs on the market, such as disposable ice packs, reusable water-filled ice packs, etc. We recommend that you choose reusable water-filled ice packs, which are both environmentally friendly and economical.

Here are the steps to use the ice-pack for the first time:

1.Open the seal: Find the water injection port of the ice pack and gently open the seal.

2.Water injection: according to the water level guide, inject appropriate amount of water (not more than 2/3 of the place or the maximum injection volume). Don't overdo it!

3.Discharge air: Gently pinch the water injection port, discharge the air in the ice pack, and then quickly close the seal.

4.Wait for the reaction: After a few seconds, the ingredients in the ice pack will fuse with the water and form a gel. At this point, the ice pack is ready!

Then, freeze the ice pack:

Place the prepared ice pack in the freezer chamber and freeze until it is lumpy. The cooling effect can last about 10-12 hours, which is very practical!

When using an ice pack, pay attention to these details:

1.Wrap the towel: To avoid discomfort caused by direct contact of the ice pack with the skin, a layer of dry towel is recommended. This can protect skin already, can absorb condensate water vapor again.

2.Select the right place: patients with high fever can place ice packs on the forehead, head and body surface where large blood vessels flow (such as both sides of the neck, axilla, groin, etc.) to achieve a cooling effect.

3.Observe the reaction: during use, observe the skin reaction at all times. If there is purple, numbness, should immediately stop using.

Finally, reuse:

When the ice pack is fully defrosted, the contents return to a gel. At this point, you can put it in the refrigerator again and freeze it for the next use. Such repeated freezing and thawing, the number of use can reach more than 1000 times, very durable!

I hope this post helps you better understand the proper use of ice packs! Please remember to remind your friends who use ice packs!
