So, what happens if you leave an ice pack on for too long? Well, it's not exactly a freezing catastrophe, but it can cause some pretty unpleasant side effects. Numbness, tingling, and even nerve damage can occur if the ice pack is left on for too long. Yikes, that's definitely not what you want!
On the other hand, some people love the feeling of an ice pack so much that they end up using it as a stress reliever. There's even a trend of using ice baths and cryotherapy chambers to reduce inflammation and boost energy. Who knew that being frozen could be so... invigorating?
