\nHead or backbone trauma can cause death, paralysis, etc, because the nervous tissue is restrained from swelling by bone. Applying ice immediately greatly reduces swelling and hence tissue death.

\nApplying ice around open wounds causes vasoconstriction and promotes coagulation, greatly reducing blood loss and risk of death. It also slows down or stops bacterial proliferation reducing the risk of infection.\r\n
