For ligament sprains and muscle injuries, apply local cold compression within 24 hours and elevate the affected area. After 48 hours, use heat therapy to promote blood circulation. Additionally, individuals with muscle or ligament damage should go to the hospital for joint examination to check for ligament rupture or poor local stability. This approach can help reduce swelling, relieve pain, and promote tissue repair.
