What are the dimensions of the ice insert for the Knee Wrap, sized Large? I'm thinking a second insert - possibly gel - would be nice. Thank you.

The pouches that hold the ice packs are very narrow. I was not able to find a gel replacement nor ice packets for replacement that fit.

12 in x 4, but it could fit a little wider maybe almost 5 inches wide I have fit other smoother ice packs into the pockets that have been wider but didn't have longer ones.

The size of the hand warmers that come two to a pack is 1.5 inches by 2 inches by 1/8 to 3/16 of an inch thick. Make sure you use some type of liner in your gloves. You don't want the warmer in direct contact with your skin as it will be really hot and may possibly burn you. I use just regular jersey gloves as a liner. I put the warmer inside the gloves I put over the jersey gloves. Now, if your doing a lot physical stuff with your hands keep the warmer on the backside of your hand as pressure of holding something, like a shovel, etc, will keep the warmer to close to the skin. I have been a freezer orderfiller for 9 years at a Walmart D.C. The temperature in the freezer is 0 degrees (32 degrees below freezing) and the ice cream room 22 to 24 below 0 (54 to 56 below 0). I have found they last the longest for me, approx. 4 to 5 hours at a time.

I followed the instructions for measuring my knee around the center and ordered a regular based on a 16" knee. When it arrived the knee part felt fine but my thigh was too large for it to even begin to connect to the Velcro. I am now in the process of trying to figure out what size to try next...large or extra large. The quality of the brace seems to be very good and of course, how can you beat Amazon's excellent service!

Shelly the answer is no. The ice is sewn in. This is a wonderful ice pack to use after knee surgery, it last apps. 30mins. refreezes in apps. 1 hour. wraps around the whole knee.

My wife had a knee replacement two months ago and used it very day for the first couple of weeks and occasionally since. It can be fitted to some extent. She used it with her leg extended and it wrapped around the knee just fine. You'll like it. We also use it for backaches and anything that needs cold therapy. The white side is super cold. We usually place the blue side to the skin initially, then when it seems most of the cold has dissipated, we flip it over to the white side for another dose of cold.

The 24" wraps around an "average" knee about 1-1/2 times. So it is bigger than necessary, but makes sure you get coverage. AND it means that you could use it for lower back, shoulder & neck relief also. Keep in the freezer. I just realized it could be heated also! My first one disappeared, someone liked it so much, they took it home!

What I did is previous experience with the brand. I usually buy Nike products in size medium, therefore, I used this as size for the knee sleeve and worked just perfect! I hope this helps

Hmmmm, I'm not sure. Are you talking about putting them in the knee sleeve? I actually picked this up fro someone else. So, I'm not too familiar with it past a cursory level.

Its about 12" ( the cold part - the handle for the attatchment is extra ) .. I'm average size and it nearly wraps all the way around my knee. I have 3 and love them all. Very flexible soft material. The white band is velcro and very sturdy.

I wouldn't use a wrap for arthritic knees, I would opt for getting a neoprene type knee sleeve. It will be more comfortable and stay put when you have it on, these aren't for wearing for long periods of time, they are to be worn very tight and only looped around your knees for weightlifting support.

Hi. I ordered a large as I ended up having a full knee replacement. Hence my knee swells alot. My son tried the same compression sleeve and it fell off his knee. He is 6' a Marine and a marathoner. I am not sure if this helps in your decision. I love mine. It is worth every penny. I have also recommended it to several others with knee pain. The beauty of this product is the sleeve for the ice packs. I have also put plain ice in the ziplock bag and put it in the sleeve. Oh what a relief it is.

Go to footsmart.com - search for knee sleeve. They sell this item, and there are dimensions and instruction on how to measure

I bought a large. At the front, the measurement is approximately 13", at the rear about 9", along the lateral line about 10 1/2". These measurements were taken with the brace lying on a flat surface, not while wearing it. I have used other knee sleeves and I rate this one "adequate" but not exceptional. One negative unrelated to its support is that it is hotter than others I have used. A positive is that it is relatively inexpensive; it is not uncomfortable to wear for many hours at a time.

I think that is what I measured as well Dorene... I went with the medium with this. You want it to be tight not overly so though. It's supposed to sort of keep the knee in the proper position and that it does. The only way to completely do that would be a neoprene sleeve but I have not worn that for quite sometime. Only right after miniscus surgery and I wanted to play tennis 6 weeks after surgery. Then I needed the sleeve. But after about 2 months of wearing the sleeve I went to this and it keeps the knee very steady and I have had no more issues with my knee. Hope that this helps. I think that you can always send this item back if it does not work for you but i did go with the medium not the large.

I have used the 9/24" wrap at PT and it is a good size. When I ordered my own from Amazon I was sent the 6/18" by mistake and have been using that and it's OK. I would recommend the 9/24" as more all purpose, i.e. Back, knee, ankle.
