SPRAINS AND STRAINS

What is Sprains and Strains?

The two most frequent types of sports injury are strains and sprains.

A strain is the result of excess stretching or overuse of muscles. Touching the area causes sharp, sudden pain, and movement can be affected.

Sprains occur when a tendon or ligament is stretched even more severely than that associated with a strain, and can often result in very restricted and painful limb movement.
