If you felt a sudden pain during physical activity, you may have a muscle strain or sprain. These are two distinct injuries that may require different treatments. Según lo explicado por los profesionales médicos de First Care en Nápoles., Florida, here are some of the differences between the two:

• A muscle strain is an injury to a muscle or tendon. A tendon is a fibrous cord of tissue that attaches a muscle to a bone. This type of injury usually results from prolonged, repetitive movements. The symptoms include pain, muscle spasms, muscle weakness, swelling, inflammation, and cramping.
• A muscle sprain is a stretched or torn ligament. A ligament is a fibrous band of connective tissue that joins the ends two bones together to support and stabilize a joint. Unlike a muscle strain, this type of injury occurs through direct trauma that forces a joint out of position, overstretches it, or ruptures the supporting ligaments. The symptoms include pain, bruising, swelling, and inflammation.

A mild muscle strain or sprain can often be treated at home with simple remedies like rest, analgésicos, anti-inflammatory medications, and heat and ice applications. Sin embargo, a more extensive injury may require professional medical attention.
