SPRAIN VS STRAIN

THE CRUCIAL DIFFERENCE YOU MUST KNOW

UNDERSTANDING SOFT TISSUE INJURIES

Sprains and strains are common injuries. Knowing the difference helps you get the right treatment and recover quickly.

WHAT IS A SPRAIN

A sprain hurts ligaments that connect bones. Common in ankles, wrists, and knees. Severity ranges from mild to severe.

WHAT IS A STRAIN

A strain affects muscles or tendons. Often happens in hamstrings, back, neck, or Achilles tendon. Severity ranges from mild to severe.

COMMON CAUSES

Sprains happen from twisting joints. Strains come from overstretching muscles. Sports, heavy lifting, and slips are main causes.

LOOK AT THE BLOG

SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS

Sprains cause joint pain, swelling, and instability. Strains cause muscle pain, spasms, and weakness. Some symptoms may overlap.

TREATMENT BASICS

Use RICE: Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation. Pain medicine, braces, and physical therapy help recovery for both injuries.

REHABILITATION EXERCISES

Sprains need joint mobility and balance exercises. Strains need stretching, strengthening, and eccentric training.

PREVENTION TIPS

Warm up, stretch, use proper technique, and wear protective gear to lower risk. Strengthening muscles and ligaments helps prevent injuries.
