Wraps and Ankle Ice Packs
DME-Direct.com has the largest selection of ankle ice packs to treat both ankle injuries of every kind. Our ankle ice packs are designed to mold to the contours of the ankle to provide compression and reduce swelling associated with ankle sprains and arthritis. These models are perfect for home use, the sidelines of a sporting event, and following orthopedic surgery.
Our ankle ice packs are 100% guaranteed to reduce swelling and pain for a sore ankle or an ankle sprain. They can be used to treat high ankle sprains and even achilles tendonitis or plantar fasciitis - simply place inside the freezer for two hours and wrap around the ankle/foot for deep pentrating cold. Why worry about ice in a bag - our ankle ice wrap models are designed to apply directed cold without all the mess.
Every ankle Ice wrap uses medical grade materials and will stretch without breaking down with everyday usage. Some of our products are made of durable neoprene, and others features latex-free materials - both can withstand daily use in the clinic setting and in the home. Our ankle ice wraps are perfect for tennis, basketball, football,volleyball, and gymnastics.
Swelling and pain caused by an ankle injury is the result of damage to blood vessels that supply oxygen/nutrients to soft tissue cells or muscles. The injured soft tissue cells are deprived of the oxygen and nutrients necessary for healthy cells and maintenance of the body’s natural healing process. The damaged blood vessels are also unable to remove cell waste. Uncontrolled, this process causes cell death and results in blood and fluid seeping into the damaged portions of the muscle creating swelling and bruising which creates additional injury to the affected area. This additional injury is what prolongs recovery from ankle sprains.
Ankle ice packs supply cold compression therapy which constricts the blood vessels and slows down the metabolism of the cells. The reduced metabolism lowers the need for the oxygen and nutrients and slows the rate of cell death and the resulting excess build up of blood and fluid.
