Title: ColdCure Wrap and BFST Wrap for foot question
Post by: Jay_Danger_58 on June 09, 2019, 08:39:37 PM

Hi, I'm a first timer here and I've had these two wraps for my foot for a whole week now.  Is it a good idea to use the ColdCure wrap for a majority of the day, then use the BFST Wrap before going to bed and before getting out of bed?  Or would the BFST Wrap still be too early?

Good morning Josh,

As a general rule, you can always complete a BFST treatment when you have no swelling or inflammation present. If you have completed enough ColdCure treatments where you are not feeling a lot of pain, and you don't have visible swelling I would definitely start your BFST treatments. The goal overall for increased healing times is to complete as many BFST treatments as you can throughout the day.

Some days may be better than others where you will not need as many ColdCure treatments, while other days (where you've been on your feet for a long period of time) you might generate more inflammation and will focus more on ColdCure treatments.

Here is a quick reference guide for completing Combination Treatments with both the BFST and ColdCure Wraps: https://www.kingbrand.com/forum/index.php?topic=1081.0

Please let me know if you have any further questions - and remember you can always call in to a Treatment Advisor as well at 844-400-2525

Best regards,
Megan

Hello,

I have been using ColdCure and BFST for about 2 months now since having tarsal tunnel release surgery in July.  I've noticed that my foot now sweats profusely regardless of the frequency of BFST treatments.  Is this a normal response to the treatments?  I've reduced the number of treatments from 3 times a day to about once a day but the sweating is consistent.  Thanks in advance for your feedback.

Hi Josh,

Thank you for letting us know about this. There are a number of different reasons that your feet would be sweating. Lets start with how you're using the products and we can work from there.

1) With your BFST Treatments, what is your treatment schedule like? What times during the day are you using the wraps?

2) How loose or tight are you wrapping the BFST around your foot?

3) Does the BFST feel warm or hot?

4) Do you notice any pain in your feet either before or after the treatments?

5) How often are you incorporating the ColdCure into your day? What is your indicator that it's required? Are you using the ColdCure before or after the BFST treatment?

6) Is there any other general information that you could provide that you feel relevant to the conversation.

Thank you,
Megan
