Cold compression是指冷压运动治疗，即把冷贴贴于受伤肢体表面，再配合特定运动来减轻伤痛、促进肌肉恢复收缩力，促进运动康复。

临床上，这种治疗在急性运动损伤，肌肉拉伤、肌肉疼痛、腱鞘炎、及肩周炎等病症治疗中普遍应用，特别是重拉伤或者轻度拉伤伴有肌肉痉挛、炎症及局部疼痛时，冷压运动治疗可以起到好的效果。

冷压运动治疗的基本方法如下：

1. 将冷敷（冰袋或冰敷巾）敷于受伤肢体表面，每次3~5分钟，直至受伤部位由热转为温；

2. 用温水清洗伤口，清洗之后，用海绵敷上伤口药物；

3. 然后，用冰敷保持伤口温度，每次15~20分钟；

4. 将受伤肢体挂高，使其处于舒适的位置，有助于伤口恢复；

5. 最后，进行特定的运动治疗，以恢复伤口收缩力，促进伤口康复。

冷压运动治疗的运动强度要与患者的伤病情况、年龄、病情恢复程度等有关。有时，在冷压运动治疗之后，患者可以采用辅助设施，如拐杖，来帮助恢复走路。

Cold compression has been widely used in the treatment of acute sports injuries, muscle strains, tendonitis, and shoulder periarthritis. Particularly for severe strain or mild strain accompanied with muscular spasm, inflammation, and local pain, cold compression therapy is effective.

The basic methods for cold compression therapy are as follows:

1. Apply cold compress (ice bag or ice towel) to the injured area for 3-5 minutes until the injured part turns from hot to warm;

2. Clean the wound with warm water, and then apply a wound medicine with a sponge;

3. Use ice compress to keep the wound temperature, for 15-20 minutes;

4. Hang the injured limb high to keep it comfortable, which helps the wound to recover;

5. Finally, perform specific exercises to restore muscle contraction and promote wound healing.

The intensity of cold compression therapy should depend on the patient's injury, age, and recovery condition. Sometimes after cold compression therapy, patients can use auxiliary devices, such as crutches, to help walk again.
