RE: heating pad made for entire leg
This company has a very large rectangular moist heating pad that is great! http://www.thermophore.com/
The 14 x 27 is very large and can be used on your entire back or wrapped around both arms at the same time. I've never used it for my leg but it should work. The price on this site is less than even at walgreens, and it includes shipping, but.............I noticed it does go on sale at walgreens quite often. I haven't looked at walmart. Good luck! Let Go, and Let God...... |

The heating pad from this company that I use the most is the shoulder one. It is shaped to drape across your neck and over both shoulders. The moist heat feels great.
They are a bit pricey compared to sunbean and some of the others but to me, they are worth it. Glad to have helped. Let Go, and Let God...... |

RE: heating pad made for entire leg
Please, please, spend your money wisely, and buy a heating pad that allows moist heat. It's a protected heating pad that has a dampend cover over it. It is the best. And cost stightly more. You should never want to cover your entire leg with a heating pad. You must work it in areas, 20 minutes on and off. Reason is, you will heat your Blood up too much, and could cause other proplems.

RE: heating pad made for entire leg
Well, if you get the one I talk about, the moistness stays all night mostly.
To better keep it on with a better fit, buy some Velcro, and and attach it on that way, surely it should stay on then. Plus the one I have has a built in timer, it shots on and off every 20 minutes or so. Reply's are intended solely for informational purposes.
