Pslove Kneeheat

Pslove Kneeheat is a self-heating, air-activated heat patch from the Pslove range. It is a physical heat-therapy device rather than a chemical or pharmaceutical product, and it is manufactured with an iron-powder-based exothermic formulation packed inside a thin, flexible, single-use sachet with an adhesive layer on one side.

The heat-generating layer of Pslove Kneeheat is composed of iron powder, activated carbon, vermiculite, water, salt, and a super absorbent polymer. Once the patch’s inner packaging is opened and its contents are exposed to air, the iron powder undergoes a natural oxidation reaction, and the remaining ingredients work together to help control, sustain, and evenly distribute the resulting warmth across the surface of the patch.

Pslove Kneeheat is supplied in individually sealed sachets, sold in packs of 2 patches, and is intended for single use only. It forms part of the wider Pslove self-heating patch range, alongside other Pslove heat patches formulated for different areas of the body, and, being air-activated, it requires no batteries, electrical charging, or microwaving before use, unlike electrical or gel-based heat packs.

To use Pslove Kneeheat, remove the patch from its sealed outer packaging only when you are ready to apply it, since exposure to air begins the heat-generating reaction. Apply it to onto your clothing over the affected knee, never directly onto bare skin.

Press the patch firmly in place so that it stays flat and secure. Once applied, the patch will begin to warm up gradually over several minutes and typically continues to generate warmth for up to 12 hours, though this can vary depending on conditions such as air exposure and ambient temperature.

Check the area periodically and remove the patch if it becomes uncomfortably hot, if skin redness or irritation develops, or once its warming effect has ended. Each patch is for single use only — dispose of it after use and do not attempt to reopen, reheat, or reuse it.

Pslove Kneeheat is a physical heat-therapy device and does not have a pharmacological dosage in the way a medicine would. As a general guide, use one patch per knee per day, and do not apply a new patch to the same knee more than once every 24 hours. Do not apply more than one patch to the same area at the same time, and always allow the skin to return to its normal temperature before applying another patch to the same area.

This patch is intended for adult use on the specified area of the body only. If you are uncertain how often it is appropriate to use for your circumstances, particularly if you have diabetes, poor circulation, or reduced skin sensation, check with a pharmacist or doctor before use.

Use Pslove Kneeheat before the expiry date printed on the packaging. Keep the patch in its sealed outer packaging and inner sachet until you are ready to use it, since an unopened, sealed patch generally retains its heating capability until that expiry date, while an opened patch begins reacting with air immediately and should be used promptly.

Store unopened Pslove Kneeheat patches in a cool, dry place away from direct heat, sunlight, and moisture, keeping them in their original sealed packaging, since the iron-powder layer begins to react once exposed to air. Keep the product out of the reach and sight of children, and dispose of a used, cooled patch in general household waste.

• Common: Mild skin redness at the site where the patch was applied.
• Common: A warm or tingling sensation on the skin during use, which is expected as the patch generates heat.
• Common: Temporary dryness or mild itching of the skin at the application site.
• Serious: Low-temperature burns, including redness that does not fade, blistering, or persistent discolouration of the skin, which can occur with prolonged or direct skin contact and require prompt medical attention.

• Do not apply the patch directly onto bare skin — always apply it onto your clothing over the affected knee, to reduce the risk of low-temperature burns.
• Do not use on broken, wounded, infected, or recently irritated skin.
• Do not use while sleeping, as reduced awareness increases the risk of prolonged contact and low-temperature burns.
• Do not use on individuals with diabetes, poor blood circulation, reduced skin sensation, or other conditions that make it difficult to feel or respond to excessive heat, unless advised otherwise by a doctor.
• Do not use on infants, young children, or anyone unable to remove the patch themselves or communicate discomfort.
• Do not use together with other external heat sources, such as heating pads, hot water bottles, or heated massage devices, on the same area at the same time.

• Not applicable in the conventional sense — Pslove Kneeheat is a physical, air-activated heat patch with no active pharmaceutical ingredient, so it does not have drug or food interactions.
• As a precaution, avoid combining this patch with topical medicated creams, gels, or patches on the same area of skin at the same time, as the added heat may increase how much of those products is absorbed through the skin.

• Only open the inner sachet immediately before you intend to use the patch, since the heating reaction begins as soon as it is exposed to air.
• Apply the patch onto your clothing over the affected knee rather than directly onto bare skin, to reduce the risk of low-temperature burns.
• Check the area periodically while the patch is in use and remove it promptly if it becomes uncomfortably warm.
• Do not cut, puncture, or shake the patch in an attempt to speed up or intensify the heat.
• Store unused patches in a cool, dry place in their original sealed packaging, away from direct heat and moisture, until you are ready to use them.
• Dispose of a used patch in general household waste once it has cooled — it is single-use and should not be reopened or reheated.

Precautions: Pslove Kneeheat generates heat through a natural chemical reaction and can cause low-temperature burns if left in prolonged direct contact with the skin, so it should always be applied onto your clothing over the affected knee, never directly onto bare skin. People with diabetes, poor circulation, reduced skin sensation, or skin conditions, as well as pregnant women, older adults, and anyone with limited mobility, should check with a doctor or pharmacist before use. Do not use this patch while sleeping, while driving, or while operating machinery, since it is not possible to monitor the patch or respond quickly to excessive heat in these situations.

When to See a Doctor or Pharmacist: Seek medical or pharmacist advice if you develop persistent skin redness, blistering, pain, or discolouration after using the patch, as these can be signs of a low-temperature burn. Also seek advice if irritation or a rash spreads or does not settle after the patch is removed, or if you are unsure whether this product is suitable for you because of an existing medical condition.
