An injury benefits from ice days following the trauma. However, if your pain worsens, you should visit Dr. James Huggins, Jr. at Carolina Chiropractic Center immediately. The icing method – cryotherapy – is an essential management skill that is also a cheap, effective, and drugless method for relieving the pain of injuries. Safe application of ice to your skin can relieve symptoms from sprains, strains, bruises, and virtually any situation in which superficial tissues are inflamed by trauma.
Cryotherapy is an excellent way to heal muscle spasms in the body. The method of icing an injury is well known to help numb painful areas as well as provide a cooling relief to affected soft tissues. Applying cold compresses to the skin effectively reduces the temperature of the skin and constricts blood vessels in the area to promote healing. It can be done right at home, or we can offer the service to you right here in the office.
If you’ve recently suffered an injury, please give us a call to discuss your treatment options.
