C
quadricep strain
D
quadricep contusion
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Immediately following the injury, a player should use RICE: Rest the leg by limiting the amount of activity and stress. This may include using crutches for more severe contusions. Ice the area while keeping the knee in a slightly bent position to reduce pain and inflammation.

Detailed explanation-2: -Immediately after the injury, put ice or a cold pack on the injured area of your thigh for 20 minutes. Put a thin cloth between the ice and your skin. While you apply ice, lie on your back.

Detailed explanation-3: -A quadriceps ("quad") contusion is commonly known as a “thigh bruise”. The quadriceps is a group of four muscles that runs down the front of the thigh from the hip to the knee, and a quad contusion occurs from forceful impact anywhere in that area.
