Troubleshooting
Gel pad is too hard when cold.
Ensure the gel pad has not been over-frozen. Allow it to sit at room temperature for a few minutes before use. The pad should remain pliable.
Gel pad is too hot after microwaving.
Immediately remove from microwave. Allow to cool significantly before use. Always test temperature on the back of your hand before applying to the breast. Reheat in shorter intervals if needed.
Gel pack leaking.
If the gel pack appears damaged or is leaking, discontinue use and replace the gel pack.
