When running in winter, the risk of muscle strain is much higher than that in other times, because the temperature is low in winter, the blood circulation speed of the human body will also slow down. At this time, the contraction of blood vessels and the extension of muscles and ligaments will be greatly reduced.

In the process of running, if you don't pay attention, exercise too hard or muscle traction exceeds the normal limit, it will cause fine muscle damage, partial tear or complete fracture of muscle; It is common in inadequate warm-up, excessive muscle fatigue or sudden violence. This injury may be acute or chronic.

01 symptoms of muscle strain

Obvious characteristics of muscle strain: tingling during activity, dull pain during rest, swelling at the injured part, usually obvious swelling, and there may be cavities in soft tissue. Depending on the severity of the injury or the degree of muscle strain, there may be bruises at the injury site, accompanied by pain and limited movement of the knee or hip.

02. Treatment of muscle strain

Treatment of thigh muscle strain

Ice pack

The most convenient way is to take an ice bag and cold compress for about 20 minutes. During the cold compress, the local area may be tingling. At this time, the injured can take away the ice bag for a while and then put it on. This is repeated. If it is serious, repeat it again at an interval of about 3 hours. It can be repeated many times a day.

Pressure bandage

After ice application, bandage the damaged part with appropriate force to prevent swelling. At this time, it is best to wrap and fix the muscle in the extended state to prevent affecting the muscle contraction, which is the most critical step to prevent the repeated injury of the injured muscle.

Treatment of calf muscle strain

Eliminate adverse activities: activities that cause pain must be abandoned.

Keep ice: ice is the best treatment for pain in the first few days. Rub the ice on the pain area for 15 minutes, twice a day.

Massage: increase the blood flow of the painful part. It is best to ask a physiotherapist or massage therapist to massage for you.

Hot compress: change to hot compress after three days.

Adaptive exercise training: stationary bicycle is a good exercise. It takes 2 ~ 3 times a day, starting from 5 ~ 10 minutes to 20 minutes at a time. Running in the swimming pool is also a good sport. The buoyancy of water can reduce the impact of running.

Stand up slowly and run slowly: when you restore your original exercise habits, take your time.

03 how to prevent muscle strain

Although we know the treatment methods after running muscle strain, it is also very important to prevent muscle strain in advance.

First of all, the most effective way to prevent muscle strain is to warm up fully before running, accelerate blood circulation, and fully activate muscles and ligaments to get enough adaptation time. Remember, we must fully warm up. We must not do vigorous exercise without warming up, especially in winter.

Secondly, select the correct running compression equipment. The function principle of the compression equipment is to provide positive pressure to the unidirectional blood vessel valve. The pressure difference between the ankle and knee can promote the blood return to the heart and resist the influence of gravity on the blood flow. The functional compression leg sleeve or compression socks (Supply Functional Socks Compression Socks Anti Slip Wholesale Factory - Beijing Risheng Socks Co., Ltd.) can increase the pressure of calf muscles, accelerate blood circulation and provide more oxygen for muscles.

In theory, wearing compression socks can make oxygen and energy substances enter the muscle faster, improve performance during exercise, effectively dispose of lactic acid, facilitate the discharge of other metabolic wastes from the muscle, and enable you to maintain high efficiency for a longer time and avoid muscle damage.
