Homemade Heat Pads
Arthritis socks are men's tube socks that you fill with rice and sew up the top. If you
want you can add lavender or other relaxing herb. You heat them in the microwave for
3 min then it lasts for 15-20 minutes. It feels great, the heat is almost a moist
heat....the sock lets it fit under the belly or folded in 1/2 for the back.
A Flat Arthritis Sock
Start with a peach of cotton material. The thicker the material the better. Sew around
three of the sides then sew three seams making 3 channels then fill with rice and sew
closed.
Warning
One of the ingredients in many socks is latex. If you have latex allergies then you
need to find socks with out latex or use other material when making arthritis socks.
Oatmeal Sock
Larger arthritis socks made with Rice can be heavy. You can use oatmeal in place of the
rice. Not only does this make it lighter but many people like the smell better.
