BillyVance 35 #1 October 25, 2007 Just learned this last night. My brother's visiting for a couple of days during his 10 day vacation from Hawaii (I know that sounds wrong, but he lives there). He sprained an ankle playing pickup basketball before coming here. Rather than using a bulky freeze block like you use in a cooler or ice cubes, get a large ziplock bag, pour a mixture of water and rubbing alcohol in it, zip it shut and throw in the freezer. I'll have to ask what the ratio of water and alcohol was used, but the result is a jelly texture that you just mold to your foot or whatever needs icing down.

monkycndo 0 #2 October 25, 2007 Frozen peas are real easy. Always keep some in the freezer just in case. No big deal if it leaks.50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PLFXpert 0 #3 October 25, 2007 Or just buy one of those gelee packs for $5 and keep it in your freezer. Lasts a lifetime. At least Billy's had his for 16 years now. Then you don't have to wabble around looking for the rubbing alcohol. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How much does a bottle of rubbing alcohol cost? Less than a buck I bet.
