Lower Back Pain

Muscle Strain

A muscle strain occurs when a muscle is overstretched, injured, or torn. It can range from mild discomfort to severe pain, depending on the extent of the injury. At I-Spine Wellness, we provide advanced, 100% non-surgical solutions such as Intradiscal Pressure Therapy (IDPT) and holistic rehabilitation to manage muscle strains effectively and safely.

Symptoms

  • ✔ Muscle pain or tenderness
  • ✔ Stiffness and weakness in the affected muscle
  • ✔ Inflammation, soreness, or swelling
  • ✔ Muscle spasms
  • ✔ Redness, bruising, or discoloration
  • ✔ Restricted range of motion

Causes

Muscle strains can be classified as acute (caused by sudden movement or trauma) or chronic (caused by repetitive stress).

Causes of acute strains include:

  • ✔ Losing balance and falling awkwardly
  • ✔ Lifting heavy objects incorrectly
  • ✔ Sudden, forceful throwing or pulling
  • ✔ Frequent heavy lifting

Causes of chronic strains include:

  • ✔ Poor posture (especially neck and back)
  • ✔ Repetitive sports activities – cricket, tennis, golf, football, rowing, etc.
  • ✔ High-intensity athletics – marathons, long jump, high jump
  • ✔ Fatigue or repetitive use of the same muscle group

Diagnosis

Diagnosis begins with a physical examination and a detailed discussion of how the strain occurred. Doctors check for tenderness, inflammation, and range of motion in the affected area.

To confirm the severity and location of the strain, imaging tests such as Ultrasound (to detect tears and fluid buildup) and MRI (to check for internal bleeding or clots) are often recommended.
