A muscle strain or pulled muscle happens when muscles are overstretched and that can turn into a torn muscle. A muscle tear can occur as a result from fatigue or tiredness, overuse, or improper use of the muscle. Muscle strains and tears can happen in any muscle and are most common in one’s lower back, neck, shoulder, and hamstring – the muscle behind one’s thigh.
Muscle strains and tears can cause a great deal of pain and can limit movement within the group of muscles. Muscle tears are unpredictable and can happen when the muscle stretches too quickly. It can take place most often when the muscle is in motion while working, running, or participating in sports or other forms of physical activity.
Muscle strains or tears can happen more often in muscles that are weak, inflexible, tired, or when you don’t stretch or warm up properly before exercise or strenuous activity. With a muscle strain or tear you can experience a sudden onset of pain, soreness, a limited range of movement, bruising or discoloration, swelling, a knotted-up feeling, muscle spasms, stiffness, or weakness.
With mild tears or strains, you may experience discomfort or a tingling sensation. The torn muscle might feel slightly stiff but can be still flexible enough for slight use. These types of tears can sometimes heal themselves after a short period of time and most of the time a person can still engage in physical activity without seeing any loss in strength or ability.

These tears can happen as a result from injuries or trauma due to not warming up properly before exercise or physical activity, being poorly flexible, poor conditioning, or overexerting one’s self and fatigue. A misconception about muscle strains and tears is that it only occurs during heavy exercising or workouts that are highly intense but muscle strains can occur simply from walking.
