Officers were called at 8.1lam yesterday to reports that multiple people had been assaulted at the multi-storey car park at Terminal 3.
Armed officers found a number of people who had been sprayed with what the Metropolitan Police said is believed to be a type of pepper spray.
One of the 21 patients the London Ambulance service treated was a three-year-old girl, police said, and five were taken to hospital. Their injuries are not believed to be life-changing.
