I feel like this one deserves a repost!

Lots of hype recently about what is being picked up on scans

A muscle strain or pulled muscle is the stretching or tearing of the fibres which make up the muscle. Most muscle strains occur in one of three ways

1. The muscle has been overstretched beyond its limits

2. It has been forced to contract too strongly

3. It has been used repetitively for too long i.e. doing too much too soon

In mild cases, only a few muscle fibres are stretched or torn, and the muscle remains intact and strong. In severe cases, however, the strained muscle may be torn and unable to function properly

A physiotherapist can assess the strain and provide an effective treatment plan to help with recovery. They can also advise on how to prevent future injuries.
