If you have been in an accident or gotten injured at the gym, you may have a strain or sprain but might not know the difference because they can cause similar symptoms. Identifying whether you have a strain or sprain is important to prevent further injury.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SPRAIN AND STRAIN?

One notable difference between sprains and strains is that strains occur when there is a partial tear of the muscle or tendon, while sprains occur when there is a partial tear of ligaments. Despite these initial differences, both can cause similar symptoms.

SOME COMMON SPRAINS AND STRAINS SYMPTOMS INCLUDE:

· Bruising

· Pain

· Restricted Range of Motion

· Swelling

· Tingling

Whether you think you have a sprain or strain, consult a doctor first to determine which one it may be.

SPRAINS AND STRAINS TREATMENT

While there are many ways to classify injuries, they can be generally categorized as pulls, tears, sprains, strains, and fractures. Strains and sprains affect soft tissues such as ligaments and tendons. Injuries to ligaments refer to stretching or tearing of the ligament itself, while a sprain refers to a stretch or tear of a ligament with a partial or complete tear or rupture of the ligament fibers. The location of an injury is also an indicator of what kind of tissue damage was experienced.
