Context |
Following most acute trauma tic injuries-ankle sprains, turf toe, and plantar fascial tears, for example-ice packs are effective. An Ace wrap can be moistened and then wrapped once around the affected area, followed by crushed ice on the area and then continued wrapping, Crushed ice or frozen vegetables conform well and therefore increase the surface area of contact.
