Abstract
Using the radiocarpal ligament of the domestic pig as an experimental model the effects of ice therapy were studied. The results indicate that application of ice causes: (1) Increased subcutaneous swelling to injured or uninjured soft tissue; (2) A diminution of histological evidence of inflammation in injured ligamentous tissue.Entities:
