How to Rehabilitate a Muscle Strain

Rehabilitation training for muscle strains includes passive stretching of the muscle, isometric stretching training, concentric and eccentric exercises, and other training.
1. Passive stretching: slow stretching of the injured muscle with the assistance of external forces helps relax the peripheral nerves and increase the local flexibility of the muscle.
2. Isometric stretching: active stretching of the local limb can promote muscle recovery. It should be carried out after the pain disappears.
3. Concentric and eccentric exercises: when there is no discomfort from appropriate isometric stretching training, concentric and eccentric exercises can be started, such as hip flexion and knee flexion exercises.
4. Other training: patients with muscle strains after 10 days can start endurance training, coordination training, sports skills training and so on. Eventually achieve bilateral limb flexibility, muscle exertion without abnormal state.
It is recommended that patients under the guidance of a professional doctor to carry out rehabilitation exercises, in order to avoid secondary injuries caused by the incorrect way of self-exercise.
