Pulled Muscles Common
Springtime Injury
It may feel good to exercise
muscles which have hibernated all
winter, but spring cleaning and
warm weather sports can result in
pulled muscles. According to the
Texas Medical Association, pulled
muscles are a very common but
painful injury.
If a muscle is over-stretched,
some of the fibers of which it is com-
posed may tear. This may result
from forcing muscles to do very
vigorous exercise to which they are
unaccustomed. When this happens,
the muscle contracts and may also
become swollen because of internal
bleeding. Occasionally, the muscle
may be ruptured or torn completely.
The main sympton of a pulled
muscle is pain when the injury oc-
curs. The pulled muscle feels tender,
may become swollen, and will not
function efficiently until the torn
fibers have healed. A muscle that
gradually becomes stiff, painful and
tender (often overnight) probably
has been pulled. In addition, a few of
its fibers may have been torn.
In most cases, recovery from a
pulled muscle is quick and complete,
and there is no danger of permanent
loss of mobility.
The older you are, the greater the
damage you can do and the more
slowly you recover. A ruptured mus-
cle, however, may become per-
manently useless unless it is suc-
cessfully treated.
If you have a pulled muscle that
does not seem to be severely damag-
ed, apply ice wrapped in a cloth or in
an ice pack to help prevent further
swelling and to decrease the pau^
Try not to use the pulled muscle^B
several days, or as long as the plm
persists.
Bandaging or strapping the af-
fected area will give it support, but
be careful not to bind it too tightly. If
you do, further swelling might then
interfere with blood circulation.
If you are in great pain or the af-
fected area becomes badly swollen,
consult your physician, who may
prescribe a painkiller, a muscle-
relaxant drug, or both. You may be
advised to use crutches for a leg in-
jury or a sling for an injured arm, or
even to stay in bed for a few days.
The doctor also may recommend
physical therapy.
