My hospital gave me the Donjoy Iceman Classic, though I probably paid for part of it. There's a well you put some water in and then four frozen water bottles (with some water taken out so they don't split in the freezer) are added to keep the circulating water icy cold for a few hours. I found 4 bottles was way too cold so later in recovery, I only added two new ones that were frozen solid.
I'm at 10 weeks out from TKR and still use it after walks. I sometimes lie on the pad that has circulating cold water for back pain too (another problem of mine.)

Holding and moving ice packs is very annoying, though my favorites for that are Relaxus brand. They come in all sizes and last forever.

@cknee415 I have not seen the pad with circulating cold water. I have to just use frozen packets on my back at times. Where did you get it? Thanks.
