Posted on in Industry News, News

Chances are at some point in your life you have strained, sprained, or wrenched some part of your body.

We have often recommended hot and cold packs to help relieve pain, but we recently realized that it may not always be clear what kind of injuries are best treated with heat packs and which injuries are best treated with cold packs.

Thankfully, the Cleveland Clinic put together this useful infographic, which outlines what kind of injuries are best treated with heat therapy, and what kind of injuries are best treated with cold therapy.
