Easy method to ice feet, used for son's Sever's

Bought these socks for my 11 year old son who suffers from sever's. He gets pain in his heels and has some days where he struggles to walk with the pain. Part of treatment is to ice the area 3 times a day. Trying to wrap a flexible icepack around his heels with an ace bandage wasn't always successful or convenient. We tried these socks. They work well. He uses the long ice pad on the bottom of his feet, and the short pad on the back of his Achilles heel. When he elevates his feet, his heels rest on the ice pads and he doesn't have to worry about an ice pack shifting. Icing his feet is now almost as easy as wearing a pair of socks. His shoe size is around a 5-5 1/2, and we purchased him the s/m and there is a little room in there for his feet to grow, but they are still very effective and are tight enough for him to just kick back with them on his feet. They are a very convenient way to ice your feet. They come with a pair of socks and 2 pads for each foot. One long ice pad that slips in a pocket on the bottom of the sock, and another shorter ice pad you can either slip in a pocket over the Achilles heel area, or in a pocket that covers the top of your foot. If you need to ice your feet on a regular basis, these socks are an easy way to do it.

Pros
  • Can be used for post-workout recovery to help reduce soreness
Cons
  • May not be able to provide relief for all types of plantar fasciitis
