Temperature variant compression stockings are three-in-one stockings that address needs both in the sports world and the medical field. The temperature variant stockings may help cool the skin while exerting a desired compressive force; another version of the temperature variant stockings may actually retain heat while also exerting a desired compressive force. The stockings are available where the temperature variant components are in contact with the user's skin while the compression yarns are knitted onto the outside of the stocking. A style is also available with alternating strips, with either the cooling yarns or the heat retaining yarns running vertically and parallel to strips of compression yarns. Antimicrobial particles are infused into the cooling or heating yarns to guard again infections.

Provided herein are systems, devices and methods for the treatment of fungus. In particular, provided herein are systems, devices and methods employing energy to nail and tissue structures to treat fungal infection.

The invention disclosed herein generally relates to a methods and devices for personal care. The invention includes methods and devices for ameliorating microbial infections and for capture and disposal of menstrual fluid.

A fungal infection treatment includes a container comprised of a thermally conductive material. In this way the container can be heated by the boiled water when the boiled water is poured from the cup into the container. A cover is positionable on the container to close the container to inhibit the boiled water from being spilled from the container. A drape is provided that has an opening extending therethrough. In this way the drape can be positioned on a respective one of the user's appendages having the opening exposing a nail on the respective appendage. The container is positionable in the opening when the drape is positioned on the appendage. In this way the container can transfer heat from the boiled water to the nail on the respective appendage for treating a fungal infection of the nail bed.

A system for for treatment of wounds consists of a treatment housing, a fluid delivery mechanism for supplying debridement fluids to the wound treatment area, an evacuation mechanism for evacuation of debris from the treatment chamber. A handheld device is connected to the treatment housing, wherein its interior accommodates a laser source, a scanning device, an image recording device and at least one sensors/detectors, a control unit having a microprocessor for controlling operation of the system. The sensors detect concentration of various substances in the wound, and microprocessor analyzes data obtained by the sensors and generates signals to adjust parameters of the laser, the liquid dispensing nozzles and the suction outlet to optimize removal of necrotic tissue so as to ultimately to promote wound healing.

A cold block for cooling an extremity comprises a container defining an internal chamber. A recess is defined in the container. The recess is surrounded, in part, by the internal chamber. The recess is configured to receive an extremity of a person. In use, in one example, the internal chamber of the cold block is filled with fluid, such as water, and frozen. In another example the internal chamber contains a gel that may be cooled or frozen. A patient undergoing chemotherapy may place a respective extremity in one or more cold blocks to decrease neuropathy.

The subject matter of the invention relates to therapy wraps for the application of compression and/or thermal therapy to a patient. The wraps are formed of at least two layers of material which are sealed together to form at least one cavity between them. The wraps may be used in conjunction with a therapy machine which fills the cavity or cavities of the wraps with fluid such as a gas and/or a liquid. The unique shapes of the wraps are particularly suitable for providing therapy to the human body. The shapes permit the manipulation of the wraps around various portions of the human body such as the shoulder, back and foot.
