CRYOSOL Cold Spray for Rapid Relief Anywhere, Spray on sprains, strains, Bruises, Aches and Sports Injuries for Instant Cooling Relief of Pain and Swelling - 200ml

It works

Looking at the contents reveals the usual sorts of flammable gases used in aerosol cans, and menthol which can have a natural cooling effect in things like throat sweets. When tried out on the lower leg, the cooling effect was hardly instant nor really noticeable. After a while it started to feel like the skin had slightly tightened with a somewhat numbing effect which lasted maybe an hour or two. However, I found this spray to be ineffective when used on the torso, rather than limbs, so may be no use for back and side strains. Individual experiences may vary, so can just say that for me this is not worth it.

Please be careful using this very effective product and take note of the following. I advise using this product for only a second or two at a time and not the 3-4 seconds the instructions state. By following the instructions in my initial use, I have ended up with what resembles a bit of a cold burn. My skin turned red after application, has since remained discoloured, and feels quite dry. Even though I held the can and sprayed from a distance greater than the advised 20cm. The area of skin does not hurt and I have applied moisturiser to it. Maybe not quite a burn but it has dried out and discoloured my skin. It isn't always plain sailing being a Vine programme reviewer!Very effective at cooling an area. Maybe too much from my initial application. It does remove strain related discomfort. For certain injuries get them medically checked out because they may require other treatment and could be more serious than realised. For basic sprains and strains etc. and to remove mild discomfort, this product works exceptionally well at making an area cold.Ideal to have in a sports/gym/holiday/camping bag etc. at home/work or even an everyday bag for quick relief, as and when it is needed.My skin is not overly sensitive. Due to my initial use, I think the instructions need changing so users are more cautious with their application of the spray. From my trial and error I now know to use very short sprays. I will knock a star off and award this 4/5 as it has caused me a temporary unwanted issue from following the instructions. Otherwise its effectiveness is 5 stars.

Works as mentioned in the description.

For the life of me I just don't seewhat this can is ment to do as you can get a more effective cooling by blowing on yourself...

Does nor Spray very well,sometimes nor at all!q

Lovely and cool 😎

Being a long term sufferer of back pain I have used many brands of freeze spray over the years.Using the spray as directed, it gave pain relief very quickly as would be expected.I experienced some "stinging" to the skin, but it would probably affect others differently.The spray comes in a 200ml aerosol which seems very good value and its easy to apply.Overall, I found the spray side effects on my skin really uncomfortable and its put me of using it again unfortunately.
