Sprains And Strains: Symptom and Causes

Symptoms

The symptoms of a sprain or strain may include:
  • Pain
  • Swelling and inflammation                 
  • Bruising
  • Stiffness
  • Loss of movement in the affected body part
  • Tenderness
  •  Muscle spasms (when the muscles contract tightly and painfully)

Causes

Sprains and strains occur as a result of an injury, when the joint is subjected to more physical force that it can withstand. Athletes, dancers, and those who perform manual labor commonly suffer such injuries. The risk of sprains and strains increases with obesity and poor muscular conditioning.
