- A strain is an acute or chronic soft tissue injury that occurs to a muscle, tendon, or both. The equivalent injury to a ligament is a sprain. Generally, the muscle or tendon overstretches and partially tears, under more physical stress than it can withstand, often from a sudden increase in duration, intensity, or frequency of an activity. Strains most commonly occur in the foot, leg, or back. Immediate treatment typically includes five steps abbreviated as P.R.I.C.E.: protection, rest, ice, compression, elevation.

- QUOTE: ... A muscle strain is commonly referred to as a “pulled” muscle. This injury can happen when the muscle is overstretched, overused, or used improperly. Muscle strains result in microscopic tears in the muscle fibers. Common sites for strain injuries include the hamstring, shoulder, neck, and lower back.
Strains can result in muscle soreness, stiffness, weakness, swelling, and spasms. They usually heal over the course of a few weeks. Interventions like ice, anti-inflammatory medications, and gentle stretching can often help the injury heal faster. ...
