Question

With regard to First Aid, what does RICE stand for?

Answer 1

In first aid treatment for any injury, the RICE stands for:

1. R = Rest (Rest is needed after an injury.)
2. I = Ice (Ice packs help reduce swelling and relieve pain.)
3. C = Compression (It helps control swelling by gently pressing the injured area with light pressure.)
4. E = Elevation (Raising the injured part above heart level helps drain excess fluid due to gravity.)
