Question re: ice post op

[InkedMarie]

On July 20, I’m having arthroscopy on my partial thickness rotator cuff tear. I have an ice machine from my TKR’s; would it be smart to get a shoulder cuff or buy a smaller ice pack? I have a ColPak that’s 12”x18”; probably too large for a shoulder.

Thanks,
Marie

@InkedMarie You could try the ColPak now to see how it fits around your shoulder. If it doesn't fit well, or seems too heavy, then look into getting a shoulder cuff for the ice machine. Why spend extra money if you don't need to?
