Sprain / Strain & Ligament Injuries

Sprains, strains, and ligament injuries happen when the soft tissues around your joints get stretched or torn due to sudden twists, falls, or overuse. These injuries are common in the ankle, knee, shoulder, and wrist — and the pain can show up instantly or build up slowly over hours. When the tissue gets damaged, swelling and stiffness kick in, making even basic movement feel tough. Getting proper treatment early keeps the injury from turning into a long-term issue.

Symptoms of Sprain / Strain & Ligament Injuries

You may notice:

• Sudden sharp pain around the injured joint

• Swelling, bruising, or tenderness

• Difficulty bearing weight or moving the joint

• Reduced flexibility or stiffness

• A popping sound at the moment of injury (common in ligament tears)

Types of Sprains, Strains & Ligament Injuries

These injuries vary in severity:

• Grade I: Mild stretch or minor tear

• Grade II: Partial tear causing noticeable swelling and pain

• Grade III: Complete tear with significant instability

• Acute Injuries: Caused by sudden impact or twist

• Chronic Injuries: Result of repeated stress or overuse

Treatment and Process

Treatment begins with a careful assessment to understand the extent of the tissue damage. We use non-surgical methods like physiotherapy, soft-tissue therapy, electrotherapy, controlled mobility exercises, and strengthening routines. These techniques reduce pain, improve stability, and help the injured tissues heal with proper alignment. As recovery progresses, we guide you through safe strengthening and balance training so the joint becomes stable and ready for everyday movement again.

Long-Term Effects of Delaying Treatment

Ignoring a sprain or strain can weaken the joint over time. Instability, recurring pain, and repeated injuries become more common. Chronic swelling, stiffness, and improper healing can also limit mobility and affect how you walk or move, leading to bigger problems in nearby joints.
