Muscle strain is an injury caused by sharp contraction or excessive stretching of muscles during exercise. This is easy to happen in long legs, pull-ups and sit-ups. After muscle strain, there is a sharp pain at the strain site, and the rope-like lump formed by muscle tension can be felt by hand, with obvious tenderness, local swelling or subcutaneous bleeding, and the activity is obviously limited.

Cold treatment should be carried out immediately after muscle strain-rinse the local area with cold water or apply ice with towel, and then bandage the injured area to prevent swelling. While relaxing the muscles of the injured part and raising the injured limb, you can take some drugs to relieve pain and stop bleeding. Take off the bandage after 24 to 48 hours. According to the injury, a plaster for promoting blood circulation and detumescence can be applied externally, and the affected area can be massaged by appropriate hot compress or light manipulation.

Those with severe muscle strain, such as muscle abdomen or tendon rupture, should hurry to the hospital for surgical suture.

I suggest you have a check-up and treatment. Your health is very important.
