Wondering which is better for sore legs: heat or ice?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

If your muscles are just sore then warmth is good. If you have joint swelling, then use ice. Always ice for swelling
