But Beware! Cold is just as dangerous as fire. If the compress used on bare skin, must be stopped within minutes: Such instructions should be shown very clearly on the package inserts and which is missing here in sufficient quantities. The cold storage is very good and the gelatinous consistency at full hypothermia is still easily malleable, so adapting to body parts is quite feasible. Note the size of the pack. Usually rich less long Packs. This size has about Wade length and then adapts well. For example, if something needed only for the Achilles tendon, the halbsogroße compress should be taken, because that can then be introduced in terms of volume even in a lightweight shoe.
