It will certainly reduce swelling and pain; the question is whether her wrist would have been back up to 100% more quickly without the ice. The claim in the infographic was that the ice probably slowed down healing. I haven't looked at the evidence (presumably) presented in the paper itself to justify this conclusion.

But she didn’t go back for class for 2 weeks. Make sure it had healed. Just was surprising to me that she curls move her wrist without pain.
