Leg Strain Support
A muscle strain refers to a tear or stretch of muscle fibres. In the leg, a muscle strain happens when a leg muscle is either forced into extreme contraction or stretched beyond its limits. Most of the common strains in the leg include calf muscle strains, plantar strains, hamstring strains, and quadriceps strains. Leg strains are of different levels and graded as grade I strain, grade II strain, and Grade III strain.

Chronic muscle strains may result from repetitive injuries when you exert pressure on muscles by performing the same movements time and again. Sports that feature sudden jumping quick starts, such as basketball, may also cause muscle strains. The general symptoms of leg strain are pain, swelling and tenderness in the muscle, decreased strength or complete loss of muscle function, difficulty walking, and a popping sensation. If you experience any of these, consult your GP immediately to get a diagnosis.
