Abstract in brief
Heat and cold therapies are commonly used to manage pain and promote healing in acute musculoskeletal injuries, but their specific effectiveness is not strongly supported by high-quality research.
Cold therapy appears to reduce pain, swelling, inflammation, muscle spasms, and metabolic activity, but there is limited strong evidence from clinical trials to confirm its benefits after injuries and muscle soreness.
Heat therapy may improve pain and blood flow, with some evidence suggesting heat wraps can reduce pain and disability temporarily, especially for low back pain and delayed-onset muscle soreness, yet more rigorous studies are needed to establish its overall efficacy.
Impact matters: This review provides information for practitioners on using heat and cold therapies based on their mechanisms of action, physiological effects, and the medical evidence supporting their clinical use.
