Sprains & Strains

Supports faster recovery from sprains, strains, and sports injuries.

A sprain is an overstretched or torn ligament — the ankle is the classic site — while a strain affects a muscle or tendon. Both usually follow a sudden twist, fall or awkward movement, and both produce pain, swelling and difficulty bearing weight or using the limb. Inability to bear weight, marked deformity or severe swelling should be assessed promptly.
