There is a problem with this thinking.

Ice works well by itself, for it cools down the area that it is in contact with (such as a first -degree burn).

Heat in high temperature is used to disinfect the wounds, and material used to treat the wound.

However, using the two together is quiet frankly not reasonable. The ice would melt in high temperatures, negating it's usefulness.
