Finger and Toe Cold Gel Ice Pack, by Penguin Fingers.Compression Cold Pack for Fingers and Toes, Arthritis, Gout, Injuries. Cryotherapy Sleeve. Best Prices (Single, Double, and Four Packs)

These things get COLD. REALLY COLD. Which is great because THATS WHAT THEY'RE FREAKING MEANT TO DO!They warn you on the packaging to not leave it on your finger for more than 5 minutes at a time. I doubt most people will last more than a minute though if they put it on straight out of the freezer. But just like other ice packs, if you leave it on for a long time straight out of the freezer you could get frost bite.I still can't understand people complaining that it gets too cold and giving it a lower rating. C'mon people, it's an ice pack. What did you expect?

Broke the fourth toe and as others have noted, icing a toe is difficult. It is way too cold to put against skin from freezer, and I tried various methods using paper towels and fingers cut off medical gloves - but today I went out and bought toe socks - and this is perfect! Am able to put straight from freezer to toe and maximize the cold duration. And adjacent toes are not too cold either. Highly recommend this method.

I severely injured my big toe. Ever tried to ice a toe with a regular icepack? Fugeddaboutit. I had low expectations since this item looked like it might be usable only on fingers (and maybe on the smaller toes), but was surprised to see it actually fit over the toe with only a bit of coaxing. It's especially worth noting that it stays flexible even it's just out of the freezer. Recommended.

Worked like a charm. I jammed my finger horribly playing basketball last week and ordered a one these on a whim. I don't heal as quickly as I used to and my knuckle was ballooned out with swelling. My wife is a nurse and said "compression & ice" which is what i searched fore. This came in a day and was SUPER EASY to actually keep on my finger vs. my regular ice pack or the drippy bag of ice I tried to use and actually stayed put just on my finger, was comfortable and the compression with the cold made the swelling go down really quickly. The best part is, it comes with two so you can ice with one while the other refreezes and swop em out. Where where these when I was in high school???

Great product that I wish I would have had years ago and maybe avoided having crooked fingers now. Years of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Kempo and some Judo on top of guitar playing have hammered my fingers. After training, Penguin Fingers are perfect. They fit snugly and work great. Much nicer than straight ice, good compression and 360 application. I recommend them without reservation whatsoever.

I bought these for pain relief for trigger finger, and wish I had known about them before now. They do get really cold whether frozen or just left in the fridge. You definitely can't leave them on for very long, but they really help with inflammation and pain. I'm glad I found them!

For a sprained thumb. The gel packs arrived on time in new condition. Very soft. Comfortable to wear. Must keep them in freezer for at least an hour. They don't hold the cold very long. Up to 10 minutes max? But you're not supposed to wear really cold items too long per time... an on again, off again routine. You might need to own several, keeping them in freezer, so you can wear them throughout the day. I don't yet know how sturdy or easily punctured. Time will tell.

Very handy for my finger joint that wouldn't heal. Now it is starting to feel better. You don't keep it on there. Sometimes when I first pull it out of the freezer I just roll it over the joint and pull it off, then do the same thing a few more times and leave it on for 2 minutes. You can always put a thin cloth or paper towel over your thumb then put this on. Use your noggin, pay attention, and listen to your body. Not all ice packs "need" to have a covering. This would significantly raise the cost plus I prefer the bare pack as the coldness seems to last longer.
