A cold pad works by absorbing heat from the skin and underlying tissues, which helps to reduce inflammation, numb pain, and constrict blood vessels. This cooling effect can alleviate swelling and discomfort from injuries such as sprains, strains, or bruises. Cold pads are often used as part of the R.I.C.E. (Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation) method for treating acute injuries.
