When to ice....

• Icing an injury typically takes place immediately after the injury occurs. Using a cold compress or ice pack on a strained muscle can decrease inflammation and numb pain in the area. Icing is effective at reducing pain and swelling because the cold constricts blood vessels and decreases circulation to the area.

• For example, if an athlete rolls an ankle in a volleyball match an immediate application of ice will cut down on long-term swelling and potentially lessen recovery time.

Rinse skin with running water for 15 to 20 minutes. If the person has poison in the eyes, rinse the eyes with running water for 15 to 20 minutes.
