What’s the difference between a strain and a sprain?

A strain is typically an injury to a tendon or muscle. The strain on the tissue or tendon may cause a tear which will take days if not week to heal, whereas a strain can also be where the tendon or muscle has been stretched too far. When muscles are put under pressure they either contract or expand, the tendons connect the muscles to the bone. If, for example, you partake in exercise and you over stretch, you may strain either the muscle or tendon.

A sprain is essentially an injury to a ligament. Ligaments are fibrous tissue that connect your bones together. Those you participate in physical activities are most likely to suffer ligament damage in their ankle, wrist or knee. This is a common problem for athletes as they are usually pushing their bodies to their limits of physical endurance.

How do sprains happen?

A sprain is simply when a ligament is stretched beyond its normal parameters. People who perform physical activities on a regular basis may suffer from common sprains such as ‘twisted ankle’. This is condition particularly affects those who run, speed walk or put excessive pressure on their lower limbs such as squash players. The short, jerky movement’s forces the ankle to move in directions it doesn’t want to go in and this may result in damage to the ligaments. Sprains are graded in their degree of severity – grade 1 is for minor sprains that will heal over a short period of time and grade 2 sprains which may require surgery.

What causes strains?

Strains, as previously mentioned, are injuries either to the muscles or tendons. Strains are usually associated with people who undertake physical activities. They are more common amongst these types of people as they are constantly putting their bodies under excessive strain and forces. It is advisable that those who are thinking about taking up a sport should take their training slowly and build up their strength and stamina at a steady pace. Often these types of injuries occur when athletes do not warm up properly or over stretch themselves.

What type of activities may cause sprains and strains?

You don’t have to be a professional sports person to suffer from strains and sprains. You can suffer from these types of ailments at anytime – even mild activity such as walking, stretching or even getting up too quick can cause a tear. This is particularly prevalent to those aged over 60 – this is mainly due to muscle wastage, bones being more brittle and lack of exercise.

Most sports carry some risk of developing strains and sprains but the sports such as football, running, gymnastics put additional pressure on the lower limbs.

What can I do to help prevent getting sprains and strains?

Not all sprains and strains can be prevented, however, there are measures you can undertake to minimise the risk such as:

• Warm up properly before starting physical activities – keep warm and allow your muscles time to expand. Cold muscles are more prone to this type of condition
• Stretch and stay flexible
• Try yoga to keep flexible and supple
• Wear appropriate foot wear – support is very important especially for the ankle area
• Don’t’ overdue it – keep to your limits and build up slowly

Your symptoms may include:

• Pain and tenderness
• Muscles may tighten causing stiffness
• Muscle spasm
• Swelling
• Bruising of the affected joint

What are the most common sprains and strains?

• Wrist Sprain
• Back Strain
• Groin Strain
• Hamstring – Thigh
