instant cold pack

Squeeze-activated cooler

An instant cold pack is a sealed pouch that becomes cold when squeezed or struck, activating a chemical reaction inside.

Used for treating injuries, reducing swelling, or cooling without refrigeration.

The cold typically lasts fifteen to thirty minutes: Grab an instant cold pack from the first aid kit for that sprained ankle.
