"Compress" means to apply pressure to reduce the size or volume of something, often used in contexts like first aid to control swelling or in physics to describe the reduction of gas volume. "Elevate" means to raise something to a higher position or level, which can refer to lifting a body part to reduce swelling or improve circulation. Both terms are commonly used in medical settings, especially for injury treatment.
