General Medi Instant Ice Cold Pack (4”x 5.5”) – 8 Packs Disposable Cold Therapy Ice Packs for Pain Relief, Swelling, Inflammation, Sprains, Toothache – for Athletes & Outdoor Activities

I used these after having some filler/botox done. They stay cold for about 15-20 minutes, but remain cool which it still nice. I also used them on my ankle after tearing some tendons, and they are flexible enough to "hug" my ankle to relieve pain and swelling. I actually put a couple used ones in the freezer to see if they'd work, and they do. They still stay cold for about the same time frame. No issues at all with any of them leaking.

This is the second time buying an instant cold ice pack. This is a different brand than before. I am completely shocked how cold these are compared to the other brand!I bought them to keep in the car and for soccer games. We tried one, shook it, folded in half and you hear a pop and it got cold immediately! Then shake it again. It was cold! Super surprised. I was super skeptical about this especially “instant cold”It was cold as if I just took it out of the refrigerator or if it was in the freezer for an hour or less.Very surprised how cold it got!Which is great for soccer games. Again I only have tested 1 so far. We shall see the others.Definitely recommend, so far so good. Very flexible and bendable.Lasted for a good solid 10 mins. No issues with packaging. I’m sure that’s a hit and miss and depends how far the box is traveling I’m sure.

My husband works in a metal fabrication shop where heat isn’t just “hot”… it’s extreme. We’re talking multiple 1500–2000° ovens running all day, constantly opening, with no fans (they’d blow metal debris) and no AC. Full protective gear is required, so there’s no real way to escape it.This isn’t the kind of environment where you can just step away for a minute or cool off casually. When the heat hits, it hits fast — dizziness, that spinning feeling, and the need to cool down immediately.Problem → SolutionI needed something that worked right then, not:❌ Something that needs a freezer❌ Something bulky or heavy to carry❌ Something that warms up before you even need itI remembered using instant ice packs in the hospital and thought… that might actually work here. So I bought these.🧪 Real-life result (work tested)These have been a game changer.He can:Snap itShake itAnd get instant cold relief within secondsNo walking away. No waiting. No planning ahead.At work, even standing near a ~1900° furnace, these stayed cold for about 15–20 minutes, which is enough to bring body temp down and recover.The pack itself is:Slushy, not rock solid (more comfortable to hold)Small enough to hold in one handThick outer plastic that contains everything well but still allows it to get cold quicklyReal-world detail (important)It gets cold directly against the skin, so using a thin cloth barrier is a good idea for comfort.⚡ Power momentAnd honestly? It’s not just him using them now — coworkers have started reaching for them too when the heat gets intense.🧪 My test (home verification)I tested one at home using an infrared thermometer:Unactivated pack: 70.7°FAfter cracking + shaking (10 seconds): 47°FSo yes — it really does drop temperature immediately, not gradually.⚠️ Balanced honestyThese aren’t meant to stay cold forever — they’re for quick, immediate relief, not long-term cooling.Final verdictIf you need something for minor injuries, these work well. But if you need something for real-world, high-heat situations where waiting isn’t an option — this is where they shine.⭐️ I included:A real-use video from a metal fabrication work environment and a temperature test using an infrared thermometer to show the immediate cooling effect

These cold packs are great to keep on hand!I ordered these to keep my hands cool while bowling in my weekly league. To keep them from warming up and swelling. Though these don't stay cold enough through all 3 games, they really did help. I've also had a couple of migraines that I've used these for. I applied them to my forehead and back of my neck. The cold relief was helpful to take the edge off of the pain.It got me thinking.These are great to keep on hand for various bumps, bruises, headaches and fevers. They're very handy to store in your vehicle for all 'in case of emergency' scenarios. Even being stuck in traffic on a hot day, these would be helpful. These are quite handy to keep around. They aren't sticky either. Nor do they really have a wet feel. There's a slight bit of moisture transfer from the cold but not much. I didn't notice any smell.This is a great product!The reason for the 4 stars is longevity of keeping cool and that there was a dud in the box that wouldn't crack or cool. Not too bad though!Would purchase again!!

These are great at what they’re great at. What’s that even mean? Well they’re ice packs, small ice packs. They activate quickly and easily, they stay cold long enough considering their size, they’re affordable. Plenty of pros if that’s what you’re looking for. Using them for youth sports just makes sense because most of your kids that need these took a soccer ball to the face or got kicked in the leg. They don’t actually “need” the ice packs but we have conditioned them to think if they’re hurt this will automatically help make it all better. So why overspend for those purposes? And in the event younger kids have an ACTUAL injury that needs ice these still do the trick.So what are the downsides? Older kids may find these way too small, especially if there’s a bad fall or bruising to the hip or leg or back. Trying to put a 4x5 ice pack on a grass and dirt shredded thigh is pretty silly. Bc they’re so small and full they’re also not that flexible, so you can’t really wrap it around a wrist or ankle. It just has to sit on top of the main point of contact. And lastly durability. This is tough bc kids don’t make smart decisions, but I’ve had a number of these burst open as there “played with”. Ideally you wouldn’t have that issue if they’re being used for their purpose but given that most of you will use these for kids it’s important to note that if they throw it around too much it absolutely WILL open up. I do not hold this against the company though bc in normal use they have been flawless

Great for traveling! I’ve used on multiple overnight trips. I freeze 72 hrs before traveling; use 7-9 hrs in cooler on the 1st day of traveling; place in hotel room fridge / freezer overnight; and keeps everything cold for another 10 hrs on the 2nd day.

A terrific value. Very easy to use and quick to deploy and get cold. Material is durable but easy to form around arms legs or goose eggs on the head. Stays colder longer than many others I've tried.

Bought for my kiddo to keep in their sports bag. Works in a pinch and helpful to have on hand. Gave three stars 1) need to be careful not to break the outside pouch when activating or they leak water. Was an issue at first but we figured out how to avoid this. 2) cold at first but lasts shorter than other cold packs. 3) packs are smaller then other options. In the end, good to have in our bag but would recommend other options for serious sports players that would benefit from a bigger cold pack that stays colder longer. Fine for younger kids.

Ottimo prodotto! Utilizzato in Marocco per raffreddare macchina foto durante viaggio in agosto! Perfetti

These are so good and stay cold for a long time!!

Easy to use, gets good and cold. My toddler asks for ice packs after every little bump, so these are great to have on hand for soccer and other outdoor activities.

Fonctionne bien mais que 10 minutes .Au vu du prix parfait

Nous avons pris ce moyen de soin à la place de bombe froide pour notre club de taekwondo. Ces sachets sont incroyablement efficaces. Simple d'utilisation, procure du froid plus longtemps qu'une bombe froide. Associé à une paumade Arnica et le choc disparait rapidement. La récupération après la blessure dure moins longtemps car les premiers soins sont appliqués très rapidement. Je valide et recommanderai si besoin.Si le choc est plus grand que la zone du sachet, nous pouvons utiliser 2 sachets pour couvrir la zone. Mais ce cas ne s'est pas produit chez nous car nos chocs sont très ciblées.Merci
