Getting some first aid on a sprained ankle usually requires a cold compress or even a hot compress to sooth aching muscles and other pains. But it can be quite messy using an ordinary cold or hot compress that sometimes people simply just have to do without it. A more techie alternative is using this Instant Cold or Hot Rechargeable Compress instead.
The Instant Cold or Hot Rechargeable Compress is a hand held device that features an aluminum head that either heat up or cool down and swivels to provide the best position when applying a cold or hot compress. This device can be heated up to 110 degrees Fahrenheit or cooled down to 40 degrees Fahrenheit in about 45 seconds, giving you a quicker means to help relieve swelling or improve blood flow in an affected area to help heal injuries faster. Powered by 4 AA batteries, the Instant Hot or Cold Rechargeable Compress can be a convenient means to apply hot or cold compress when needed. It is available at Hammacher Schlemmer for US$130.
