Ice is better than heat for an acute injury during the first week. Most people stop icing after the first day or two unless they're very uncomfortable. No longer than 15 minutes at a time with a hamstring. If it were a toe or a finger, no more than 10 minutes as cases of frostbite have occurred. Always a good idea to place the ice in a plastic bag and place layers of paper or cloth towels between the bag and the skin. Remember RICE - rest, ice, compression, elevation. Generally 15 -20 min is maximum for icing an injury.
Method 4: Use Dry Ice. Primarily used as a cooling agent, dry ice can be used to get out small dents from your car. As long as you're wearing protective gloves, hold down a piece of dry ice on the dent and rub it around until you hear your dent pop back into place.
