Nexcare™ ColdHot Therapy Pack Classic

Natural therapeutic action of cold and heat. Compresses can be used for heat or cold therapy and are a practical solution for those who prefer natural treatment without medication. Use cold compresses for tension headaches, fever (not intended to lower body temperature), acute injuries (bruises, small bumps), sprains, e.g., of the ankle, knee, elbow or shoulder, or swelling due to bruising/injury. Use warm compresses for stiff neck or shoulders, arthritis/rheumatoid arthritis (without acute inflammation) such as wrist arthritis, when you are cold (use as a hot water bottle), for lower back pain, menstrual pain, painful knee or general stiffness of leg muscles and for abdominal pain (only due to muscle tension).

Directions for use
Can be cooled in the freezer or refrigerator. Can be heated in warm water or in the microwave. Knead the compress to distribute the heat evenly. Always place the gel compress in the included cover or in a clean towel when applying it to the skin. Apply the compress to the painful or inflamed area and leave it on as long as it feels comfortable. Reheat the gel pack once it has cooled to room temperature. The gel pack comes with a protective cover for quick/easy and comfortable use and to protect your skin. Read the instructions for use before use.

People with known or suspected nerve or circulatory problems should not use this product, unless prescribed by a doctor.
Supervise if the compress is used by children or people with cognitive impairment.

Never heat the compress when it is folded, creased or frozen. Leakage may result.
Overheating will damage the gel compress.
Do not heat in an oven or grill.
The gel compress is not intended for constant heating.
Check for leaks before use.
Never use a damaged gel compress.
Discard if it leaks.
Do not use when degradation of the material occurs:

If the microwave power is unknown, use the lowest setting (defrost setting) and heat in increments of 30 seconds.

If the gel compress is too hot, wait until it has cooled before applying it to the body.
Never apply directly to the skin. Use the included cover or wrap it in a clean cloth.

Caution is advised to prevent frostbite and superficial nerve damage.
Overheating of the gel compress can lead to burns.
Heat has a pain-relieving effect and can thus unknowingly cause local burns.
