Sports Medicine
A strain is an injury to a muscle or tendon that occurs when the muscle is stretched beyond its normal limits or experiences excessive force. Strains can result from acute injuries, such as lifting heavy objects, or from chronic overuse, causing micro-tears in the muscle fibers. Understanding strains is essential for managing musculoskeletal injuries effectively and promoting recovery through proper rehabilitation techniques.
