What are sprains and strains?

  • Sprains: Injuries to ligaments (the tissue that connects bones). Commonly affect ankles, knees, and wrists.
  • Strains: Injuries to muscles or tendons. Often occur in the back, legs, or shoulders.

Both can cause pain, swelling, bruising, and difficulty moving the affected area.
