Soft 'N Cold* Ice Bags

When a patient needs cold therapy for a sprain, post-surgical swelling, or a fever spike, the Owens & Minor Soft 'N Cold* Cold Ice Bags deliver reliable, targeted relief that molds to the body. These reusable ice bags are built for the everyday demands of clinics, physical therapy departments, and home recovery, offering a soft-shell alternative to rigid packs that patients often find uncomfortable against skin.

The core of this collection is the Soft 'N Cold* Reusable Large Ice Bag (33630), sized at 6.25 x 9.5 inches — a footprint that covers knees, shoulders, ankles, and lower backs without being unwieldy. Because it's reusable, a single bag stands in for a steady stream of disposable packs, making it a sensible choice for facilities watching per-application costs and for households managing an ongoing injury.

A few practical points buyers usually want answered: the bag holds ice and water rather than gel, so it conforms closely to contoured joints and stays pliable when chilled. The soft outer surface distributes cold gently, reducing the harsh, biting sensation of firmer packs and lowering the risk of skin discomfort during longer applications. As with any cold therapy, a thin cloth barrier between the bag and bare skin is recommended, and applications are typically kept to 15–20 minutes at a time. Reusability also means the bag should be emptied and allowed to dry between uses to keep it in service.

Owens & Minor products are a familiar sight in medical supply rooms, and the Soft 'N Cold* line fits neatly alongside other trusted staples. If you're stocking a treatment room or first-aid station, you may also want to compare related consumer and clinical lines such as Soft N Sure and Soft-N-Fresh.
