Muscle Strains
Muscle strains occur when a muscle is overstretched or torn, often due to sudden movement, overuse, or improper lifting techniques. Symptoms include pain, swelling, muscle weakness, stiffness, and limited range of motion. Common areas for muscle strains include the lower back, hamstrings, quadriceps, and shoulders. Depending on the severity, a muscle strain can range from mild discomfort to intense pain. Physical therapy plays a key role in recovery by addressing the underlying cause of the strain and promoting healing. Through targeted exercises to strengthen the affected muscle, improve flexibility, and restore function, physical therapy helps prevent future injuries and reduces pain.
