First seen Dec 15, 2025 · Last updated May 22, 2026 · Updated 25 times
Summary
This study looked at how a 15-minute ice pack on the back of the hand changes skin temperature and how cold or comfortable the hand feels. Thirty-nine healthy young men were randomly assigned to get either an ice pack or a room-temperature water pack. Researchers measured skin temperature and asked participants to rate their comfort and cold sensation. The goal was to understand the body's response to cold, not to treat any disease.
