I have an electric heating pad that plugs into a wall outlet. (It’s a Sunbeam heating pad.)
I also have a heating pack that I made myself. (It’s a sock filled with rice.)
And I have a microwavable hot/cold pack that I got as a gift. (It’s a Bed Buddy.)
While they have all worked reasonably well up til now, they are all many years old.
Hubby and I have been experiencing a few more aches and pains than normal lately, so we’ve been looking for a heating pad that is heavy-duty — a little more durable and longer-lasting, good for everyday use.
- I have chronic neck pain — partly due to Lyme Disease, and partly due to spending way too many hours at a time working on the computer.
- Hubby had a recent bout with melanoma skin cancer — which led to a blood clot (or Deep Vein Thrombosis) and leg pain with swelling.
