Q: is there any way to hold one or two of these well enough on my arm end to end lengthwise so I can be up and around? (Gashes bruises and swelling from below shoukder to wrist from an accident)
A: Yes! I wanted to do the same thing so I bought 4 of them and use the handy straps to link them together!
submitted byAngie - 2 years agoA: CryoMAX comes with a pouch and strap so that you can securely strap CryoMAX to a place on your body. It also lasts 8 hours so you can move it from one place to another to cover all areas of swelling.

Q: Can this get through TSA to use on flight? Hoping I can store it in and insulated bag w/ice, ditch ice right before TSA to keep frozen. Saw post allowing "partially frozen" items through for medical use, so hoping this will be sufficient?
A: Hi Corey, TSA States "Frozen liquid items are allowed through the checkpoint as long as they are frozen solid when presented for screening. If frozen liquid items are partially melted, slushy, or have any liquid at the bottom of the container, they must meet 3-1-1 liquids requirements. Note that medically necessary gel ice packs in reasonable quantities are allowed regardless of their physical state of matter (e.g., melted or slushy). Please notify the TSA officer at the checkpoint for inspection." My recommendation would be to wear a frozen CryoMAX to security and ask the TSA agent before you take it off so they can see you wearing it and claim it is for medical reasons. I cannot guarantee it will get through but based on their own policy, it should.

Q: Can you use the pack without the cloth?
A: CryoMAX is not designed to be used direct to skin. The patented design gets very cold so the cloth exterior is meant to protect the skin.
