Sprains and Strains
DESCRIPTION A sprain is an injury to a ligament. A ligament is a thick, tough, fibrous tissue that connects bones together. Commonly injured ligaments are in the ankle, knee, and wrist. The ligaments can be injured by being stretched too far from their normal position. The purpose of having ligaments is to hold your skeleton together in a normal alignment -- ligaments prevent abnormal movements. However, when too much force is applied to a ligament, such as in a fall, the ligaments can be stretched or torn; this injury is called a sprain.

A strain is an injury to a muscle or tendon. Muscles move your skeleton in an amazing variety of ways. When a muscle contracts it pulls on a tendon, which is in turn connected to your bone. Muscles are made to stretch, but if stretched too far, or if stretched while contracting, an injury called a strain my result. A strain can either be a stretching or tear of the muscle or tendon.
Sprains are caused when a joint is forced to move into an unnatural position. For example, "twisting" one's ankle causes a sprain to the ligaments around the ankle.
Causes of strain include the following:
  • Excessive physical activity or effort
  • Improperly warming up before a physical activity
  • Poor flexibility
Below are some common sprains and strains:
  • Finger Sprain
  • Wrist Sprain
  • Knee Sprain
  • Ankle Sprain
  • Back Strain
  • Neck Strain
  • Groin Strain
  • Hamstring (Thigh) Strain
SYNONYMS
  • Joint sprain
  • Pulled muscle
SYMPTOMS
  • The first thing you notice is pain, often severe. This is usually at the time of injury, eg "going over on your ankle" or twisting your knee, but some times the damage is done by repetitive and less major strains and the pain becomes apparent later and possibly even the following day.
  • Swelling is often obvious, and this is usually very tender
  • The area affected may be reddened and rather warmer than usual.
  • Bruising usually appears, often away from the area most affected, as blood which is released from the damaged soft tissues (muscles, ligaments, and tendons) seeps out along the muscles and other structures before coming near the skin.
  • Pain and swelling causes the part affected to be difficult to use normally.
