Sprains and Strains

Understanding Sprains and Strains

Sprains and strains are common injuries that affect the muscles and ligaments. A sprain involves stretching or tearing of ligaments, the tough bands of fibrous tissue that connect bones to one another in the joints. A strain involves stretching or tearing of muscles or tendons, the fibrous cords of tissue that connect muscles to bones. These injuries are often caused by falls, twists, or direct blows to the body.

Schedule an Appointment

If you observe these symptoms in your child and are concerned about a possible sprain or strain, it is important to seek a comprehensive evaluation from a healthcare professional. Scheduling an appointment with us can help in obtaining a proper diagnosis and developing an effective treatment plan to manage your child’s injury and promote healing.
