Cold Pain Therapy: Understanding How Cryotherapy Works to Reduce Pain and Inflammation?
Cold pain therapy, also known as cryotherapy, uses cold temperatures to relieve pain and reduce inflammation in the body. Applying an ice pack or cold gel packs to injured or inflamed areas of the skin lowers the temperature of tissue and decreases nerve conduction velocity, reducing pain signals sent to the brain.
When tissue is exposed to cold temperatures, the blood vessels in that area constrict, reducing blood flow and swelling caused by inflammation. Decreased circulation helps reduce the collection of chemicals that can sensitize pain-causing nerves. Cold also blocks sodium channels in nerve fibers, slowing nerve impulse conduction and temporarily numbing the painful area. By disrupting nerve signaling from injured or inflamed areas, cryotherapy provides temporary pain relief.
