What is a Pulled Muscle?
A pulled muscle, also known as a strained muscle, is caused by a tear or injury to your muscles. A pulled muscle occurs when you overstretch or overuse a muscle and it becomes strained. Other causes of pulled muscles include sudden movements, improper lifting techniques, and direct blows to the muscle.
The Symptoms of a Pulled Muscle
The most common symptom of a pulled muscle is pain. The pain may be mild to severe, depending on the extent of the muscle injury. You may also experience muscle cramping, swelling, bruising, or weakness in the affected muscle.
If you think you may have pulled a muscle, it is important to seek treatment from a qualified healthcare professional. When left untreated, a pulled muscle can lead to further injuries, such as joint damage or even a muscle tear.
Chiropractic Care for Pulled Muscles
If you're dealing with a pulled muscle, chiropractic care can help. It's a drug-free, non-invasive treatment option. Chiropractic adjustments can help to align your spine and relieve any pressure on your muscles, nerves, and joints.
Massage therapy can increase blood flow to the affected area and fasten the healing process. Our chiropractor will also provide tips and exercises to help speed up your recovery as well as tips to avoid pulled muscles in the future, such as warming up before exercising and using proper lifting techniques.
