I have had 2 knees and. 2 hips replaced at 3 different hospitals. All. sent me with my own ice machine as part of the package. Our local HC support group also does loaners of equipment. The ice machine is a necessity. for pain relief.

I had good pain relief by using an ice knee wrap available on Amazon. Kept in the freezer when not in use. I didn’t want to spend lots of
$$ on an ice machine. Of course a good option if covered by insurance. The important point is to ice one way or another.
