Everything you need to heat pack is a towel and a little warm water. Do read your sink until it is as hot as you can tolerate. Then dip the cloth in water and wring it out to be dripping wet and hot, but. Gently push the towel to the boil until it cools. Stop repeating that for 10-15 minutes or as long as it feels good to you. Good luck!

A warm compress is something that has to be heated and can be pressed against them! For example, a little water or heat in oven or microwave. The heat is so hot that you can stand without burning! Dampen a cloth or fold a small towel in hot water and put in the necessary space for about 10 minutes. It may take some time, but want to keep as hot as you stand up and can be repeated with about 5 minutes between interruptions rewetting. You should come to my head one day, if not, go to your doctor and see if they can drill) (open pit and drain.
