Pulled Muscle Injuries
  • A pulled muscle (muscle strain) - occurs when a
    muscle is unduly stretched resulting in a tear.
  • Symptoms of a muscle strain
  • Chronic pain
  • Swelling
  • Difficulty in movements.
  • Common sites of strain
  • Groin
  • Hamstring
  • Calves
  • Lower back
  • Shoulder

3
Pulled Muscle Injuries
  • Most common muscle strains though recover with
    RICE
  • Rest
  • Ice
  • Compression
  • Elevation
  • Most muscle overuse injuries result from improper
    fitness for the particular activity.

If a strain or sprain is severe, the torn
ligament may take months to heal.
4
Hamstring pull
  • This is another type of injury that can result
    from sharply kicking out while actually running.

The biggest problem with hamstring pull is that,
it may take up to 12 months to actually heal.
This is because the muscle is constantly firing
while we walking.
5
ACL Tear
  • The Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is an
    important tendon that holds and stabilizes the
    knee joint.

This injury can occur when you are hot on your
knee from the side and you may hear a POP
sound.
These injuries definitely require surgeries to
fix this problem. A post surgery and aggressive
physiotherapy is a must.
6
Tennis Elbow
  • As the name indicates, this problem occurs among
    golfers resulting in something called
    epicondylitis.

The treatment though is fairly straightforward
i.e staying away from the golf court.
7
Shin Splints
If you have an aching pain on the inner aspect of
your lower leg.
  • This happens when you are just getting used to
    running and when the muscles around the tibia get
    inflamed.
  • Usually provide relief
  • Use of pain medication
  • Ice
  • Proper footwear

8
Stress fracture
  • Stress fracture can occur in any sport.
  • These high impact fractures occur due to undue
    abuse of the muscles beyond its ability causing
    the pressure to be transmitted to the bone and
    resulting in a fracture.

Rest and appropriate immobilization is usually
the best way to allow stress fractures to heal.
