About 5 years ago I tore my ACL and had it repaired a few months ago over the the summer. I’ve done a lot of PT rehab over the past few months and my PT mentioned that ice reduces blood flow, heat increases blood flow. It wasn’t so much an as ice vs heat but more about the importance of increasing blood flow to help the tissue repair. Other things increase blood flow too, like exercise. There isn’t really a strict dos-and-donts to treatment.
