ActiveWrap - Hand and Wrist Ice Pack for Repetitive Strain, Pain, Swelling, Carpal Tunnel, and More, Reusable Ice Packs for Injuries with Compression Straps, Use for Hot and Cold Therapy, One Size

Excellent. But you will need to buy at least one extra set of ice packs as they’re small and don’t store enough cold therefore have at least one backup set in the freezer.

The wrap works well. After using it a couple days, my wrist is actually feeling better. The only trouble I had, and it's really not a big deal, was that the ice packs slide out of their fabric pouches and take a little work to get back in. It's happened a few times as I try to pull the Velcro pouch off the wrist wrap to put it back in the freezer. Like I said, not a big deal, but when your wrist is messed up, it is a bit of work to get the ice pack back into its sleeve.Overall, it's good, but for some reason I hate having something between my thumb and fingers... it makes my thumb feel disjointed. So I leave the thumb strap off and now I've been just setting my wrist on the ice packs (with a paper towel in between) because I can't quite seem to get the ice on the right spot when the wrap is fully on my wrist.

I have self diagnosed De Quervaines Syndrome. "Thumb-Wrist Tenditis". I'm a lifter, father of 3 babies/toddlers, and I have to use my wrist/hand at work a lot as well. These are three possible causes and I do all three things regularly. I finally decided I needed to intervene because it wasn't getting better. I'm 5 days into a 2 weeks break to start. I decided to stop lifting, limit my mobility with a thumb stabilizer brace, ice my wrist 3-4 times a day, and run ibuprofen and Tylenol around the clock.So, onto the brace.Fit- I wear Large in most everything. This fits me fine. It will work for hands-forearms bigger, and smaller than mine. It has a good range for size.Quality- This seems to be very high quality material. It's a squishy neoprene. The ice packs feel like they'll last a while, and then you can buy replascements when need be. I'm hoping I never have to replace them.I like that I can position the ice packs where I need them through use of hook & loop Velcro. Also, if I have an area to concentrate on I suppose I would only need one ice pack and that would allow me to leave the second ice pack (it comes with 2) in the freezer to remain cold incase I need it too.-Results- It stays cold for a bout 15-20 minutes which is all the more you should ice yourself anyways. It does the job. I gain more mobility in my wrist afterwards which shows me that the swelling inside has decreased. I've gained a good bit of mobility in the past 5 days and have faith that this is necessary to recover from this. I highly recommend spending the $28 on this product because it can be used on either hand-wrist-forearm and I feel it's helping my wrist tendinitis everytime I use it.

The outer wrap itself is pretty large and bulky and makes using the wrap while computing (on a PC, Laptop, Tablet or even a Phone) very challenging.Previously, I purchased a different brand wrap that included two smaller cold packs (50mm x 100mm or 2x3"-ish) , and those frozen packs stayed cold for only 3-4 minutes before having to go back in the freezer for an hour.Now, I use the bare (no sleeve) frozen packs from ActiveWrap with the other wrap (with the better fit and less bulk), and the result is that I get VERY COLD for 3-4 minutes, then COLD for another 5-10 minutes, and COOL for 10-15 minutes after that. Then I can swap the one out with the one in the freezer and get another 30 minutes of "apply cold for relief".TL;DR *Amazing* cold packs. Totally useless nylon cold pack 'protection' sleeves. Bulky outer wrap that's great if you're just icing and watching TV, but no good if you ice your wrist while actually needing to DO anything with it. :D

This isn't some Batman Go-Go Gadget Spiderman slinky thing. Nuh-uh. This will bring your wrist back from wrist hell. Over-exertion while lifting weights must've pulled a muscle (that's my story and I'm sticking to it). I waited half a year for my wrist to recover. It wasn't recovering. That wasn't good. I like my wrists. Wrists are useful. I wanted my wrist back. After I self-diagnosed tendinitis (not to worry, I'm not prone to bouts of hypochondria) I looked at a few things that could save my wrist. One was duct-taping an ice-filled plastic bag to my hand. That's soooo ghetto (like TOTALLY). The other was this Batman Go-Go Gadgdet Spiderman slinky thing. I opted for "The Glove". A few weeks later my wrist was completely healed! (AMAZING!) No. I'm serious. It was only 3 weeks of freezing my hand into a Popsicle for a few hours a day. And now I have this ultra-cool looking Batman Go-Go Gadget Spiderman slinky thing decorating a shelf in my medicine cabinet.
