Dealing with a swollen ankle and need quick relief? Skip the pharmacy and try this proven, budget-friendly homemade ice pack that's just as effective.
Grab a bag of frozen peas from your freezer:
The peas' irregular shapes let the bag mold perfectly around your ankle for even cooling and better results.
Plus, there's no messy leaking once it thaws—a common issue with commercial packs.
Key tip: Never refreeze peas used as an ice pack. Thaw, cook, and enjoy them for dinner instead!
