Unfortunately it could worry United fans that the in-form striker is carrying an injury as the Red Devils kick on into the second half of the season.
The box appears to be a Melmak Ultrasound Bone Healing Device.
The product’s website describes how it is used “in the treatment of delayed or non-union fractures and the acceleration of fresh fracture healing”.
Used for 20 minutes a day, ultrasound is delivered to the afflicted area to speed up recovery.

The website continues: “The low intensity ultrasound frequency used in the Melmak device has been shown to heal 86 per cent of non-unions and accelerate the healing of fresh fracture by up to 38 per cent in various multi-centre and randomised trials”.
The device is attached by a wire that delivers pulses to the area with a touch of a button.
If the 22-year-old was carrying an injury, he didn’t show it as he put on a masterful performance in a 4-0 spanking of Norwich at the weekend.
Rashford marked his 200th United game with two goals – one from the penalty spot – before being substituted on 59 minutes.
But speaking after the game his manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer hinted there could be an injury that is being nursed.
The Norwegian said: “Fantastic effort by Marcus getting to 200 games so quickly.
“He got through most of the game, he is struggling a little bit so we took him off.
“He kept his cool. Very pleased with Marcus.”
But Rashford posted on Twitter that he was replaced “as a precaution” – the game was all over anyway at that point at 3-0.
