​For many years ice was commonly used to treat soft tissue injuries to aid the recovery process but this has been recently questioned as there is no evidence that ice helps with injury recovery but quite the opposite, it may delay the healing process.

​Below is an interesting article from the person who created the term "RICE", Dr Gabe Mirkin who explains that cryotherapy may actually prolong recovery.
