It's not just white, wild, long grain or short grain.
RICE is a recommended way to treat most exercise
and some sport-related injuries. Each letter is a step
in the treatment.
Rest – gives an injury time to heal
Ice – apply ice to injury as soon as possible to relieve
pain and swelling
Compression – wrap the injury for support and
to help limit swelling
Elevation – elevate the injured area to keep fluid
from collecting at the site of the injury
