Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -SPRAIN: Results from overstretching or tearing a ligament, tendon, or muscle. Ligaments are fibrous tissue that connects bones. Tendons are tissue that attaches a muscle to a bone. STRAIN: Occurs when a muscle or tendon is overstretched or over-exerted. Common sense can prevent many sprains and strains.

Detailed explanation-2: -A strain is when a muscle is stretched too much and tears. It is also called a pulled muscle. A strain is a painful injury. It can be caused by an accident, overusing a muscle, or using a muscle in the wrong way.

Detailed explanation-3: -A muscle strain, or pulled muscle, is an injury to your muscle fibres (a torn muscle). You may strain a muscle if you stretch it beyond its normal comfortable range or make it work too hard or fast. Muscle strains are common and can happen to any muscle in your body.

Detailed explanation-4: -There’s no difference between a strained muscled and a pulled muscle. People use the terms interchangeably. The same is true for a strained muscle and a torn muscle. They’re the same injury with the same symptoms and treatments.
