The most well-known types of sports injuries are sprains and strains of muscles and tendons. A fundamental treatment for these sorts of wounds is called R.I.C.E. Therapy:
Rest
Stop the sports activity instantly. Extended stress can magnify the damage done to the tissue.
Ice
Apply a TheraPAQ Gel Ice Pack. Cold therapy decreases the size of the blood vessels, subsequently reducing the bleeding, reducing swelling, and relieving pain.
Compression
Apply pressure with a TheraPAQ Gel Pack. Compression lessens swelling.
Elevation
Lift the injured limb above the level of the heart to assist in draining excess fluid from the area.
