Arthritis Pain Relief - Hot Vs Cold Treatment by Roberto Bell

Choosing whether to use heat therapy or cold therapy to reduce joint stiffness and arthritis pain depends on the type of arthritis and the type of pain you have. Different people have different levels of pain tolerance so it's always advisable to discuss a treatment program with your doctor.rnrnWhen to use Ice TreatmentrnIn general, ice is ideal for soft tissue injuries such as bruises, sprains, or acute trauma. Cold numbs the sore area and significantly reduces swelling and discomfort.rnrnrnWhen to use Heat TreatmentrnHeat increases blood flow and improves range of motion for joints. For arthritis pain, doctors and therapists recommend heat more than cold because it relaxes tendons and ligaments to increase flexibility and decrease pain. rnrnThe debate over whether to use cold or heat stems from the fact that both cold and heat can help to reduce inflammation for chronic conditions like arthritis. rnFor most people, using cold or heat may come down to what feels better. rnrnCommon cold therapy productsrnFrozen gel cold packs: These ice packs are kept in the freezer and can be used anytime when you have pain. The ice pack should be wrapped with a dry towel before applying it to the skin. rnrnBiofreeze: This is a topical pain reliever used for temporary relief of arthritis and tendonitis. It comes as a roll-on, spray, or gel pump. rnrnrnCommon heat therapy productsrnrnInfrared heat: Deep penetrating heat can reduce arthritis pain. The heating belt is ideal because it can be used on the upper back, lower back, shoulders, thighs, and joints. rnrnSpa or hot tub: Portable compact spa's or sauna's are easy to assemble and can be moved around easily. Of course, if money is no object, installing a permanent spa in your home will give you the ultimate spa experience. rnrnParaffin bath: Placing your hands, feet or elbows in melted paraffin wax can help with pain relief. rnrnArthritis gloves: These gloves provide mild compression and warmth for your hands and can be worn all day. The gloves have open fingertips to allow your hands to be functional.

as a lab technician for a pharmaceutical company, you are responsible for preparing hot packs and cold packs.?

a hot pack involves the release of heat when a salt and water are mixed. a cold pack becomes colder because mixing a salt and water absorbs heat.

Which compound could you use to make a hot pack?

Which compound could you use to make a cold pack?

The cold pack can use ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3). Dissolving solid ammonium nitrate in water takes up lots of heat, so the solutions become very cold.

The hot pack can use calcium chloride (CaCl2). Dissolving solid calcium chloride in water gives off heat, so the solution becomes warm. Magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) works also.
