Answer:

Four to eight times a day for 20 minutes at a time.-apex

Explanation:

Sprain is an injury that causes stretching or rupture of ligaments in the joint. Experts often suggest ice in the region to relieve pain and reduce swelling. This ice should be placed four to eight times a day for 20 minutes at a time.

Ice is an excellent analgesic and anti-inflammatory method. Low-cost and home-made, it can be taken in risky sports (football, racing, volleyball, etc.) and can be administered immediately after injury. However, care must be taken because very low temperatures can damage nerve structures that are very sensitive to temperature changes.

Singing or screaming too much or loudly can cause you to lose your voice. Give a detailed explanation of why.
Alex

In acute laryngitis, which is the most common cause of voice loss and hoarseness, you suddenly lose your voice or become hoarse(make your voice scratch your rough). Acute laryngitis can result from: <em><u>Viral infection</u></em>. Viral infections, such as those that cause the common cold, they can cause you vocal cords to end up swelling. (hope this is detailed enough lol)
