Understanding Muscle Strain & Ligament Sprains
Sprains and strains sound similar, and can produce similar symptoms, such as pain, swelling, and reduced range of motion. The distinction between the two is that strains happen to muscles or tendons while sprains affect the ligaments within joints. So, for example, you might strain your bicep or sprain your ankle. In both cases, the affected tissue has been overstretched or partially torn. With a muscle strain, you might also experience cramping, spasms, or weakness. A ligament sprain may produce a popping sound when the injury occurs.
The two injuries often require different treatments based on the location, severity, and so forth. At Halifax Health ExpressCare, we’ll conduct a physical examination, ask you about the injury, and, if necessary, use imaging like X-rays (which we can perform on site) to accurately diagnose your injury. From there, we’ll formulate an individualized treatment plan to help mitigate pain and other symptoms as well as effectively heal the injury.
