Leg sprain occurs due to stretches or tears in the ligaments, resulting from bending and twisting the knee or leg. Leg sprains especially happen among athletes. The symptoms of a sprained leg may include pain while walking; and bruising, tenderness, and swelling in the affected muscles. Several conditions can cause a sprain in the leg. Landing awkwardly from a jump and walking or playing on uneven surfaces can cause a leg sprain. Some risk factors contributing to leg sprains include environmental conditions, fatigue, and wearing ill-fitting equipment. Once the symptoms appear, you should consult your GP to diagnose the problem.
