Hi there! My name is Dr. Cary Yurkiw. Which one is better for pain, ice or heat? *Please consult with your health care provider before doing anything new


⭐ Ice reduces pain and inflammation and is best used within 72 hours after injury


⭐ Heat is best after 72 hours when it can help speed up healing and increase flexibility
