Is flex-i-cold safe? what is gel made of?? any chemical that may effect skin? or is same as ice inside bag?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Very safe.: When applied directly after kept cold the gel will not come in contact with your skin. The gel itself is also non toxic. You can get the same relief by using ice in a bag. The nice benefit of the gel packs is that the gel allows you to mold to any contour and remain cold.
