How do you heal a Pulled muscle in abdomen?

The only thing you can really do is rest it. Just do what ever you can to not use the muscle very much. It normally takes about 2-4 weeks for a pulled muscle to heal. I haven't heard to many cases of a pulled muscle in the abdomen. So you might want to see a doctor and make sure its not a hernia.

I pulled my gluteal muscle while running over two weeks ago and still can't run without pain How long should it take to heal and should I see a doctor?

It could take up to 2 months to heal fully ,with the Gluteal maximus being the biggest muscle in the body and one used most of the time. If its still hurting after 1 month see a doctor as you could have split a vain.


Where exactly is a pulled groin muscle?

A pulled "groin" is actually a strained muscle in the upper thigh. Strained muscles occur when the fibers of the muscle are stretched too far. The result is a group of torn fibers, or in horrible cases, the entire muscle may tear. Usually however, it is just a small tear. If you feel that your muscle has ripped entirely, and you are in a lot of pain, PLEASE GO SEE A DOCTOR! You probably need surgery to correct this problem. If it is a minor strain, and you are not in agony, a doctor will not be able to do much for you. REST is the key! If you pulled your groin within 48hrs ago, you should be icing it as much as comfortable. After that point, gentle heat applied to the affected area before any physical activity is recommended, as this will help loosen the torn muscle. I am not a doctor, I'm just a kid, none of this should be taken as scientific fact.

What can you do for your dog who has pulled a muscle in his front leg?

Get him to the vet, he may have done more damage than simply pulled a muscle. However, if it's just a pulled muscle, you will have to crate him for a little while to allow him to heal. Talk to your vet to see what he/she recommends and to get some pain-killer for the dog too.


How do you know if you have pulled a muscle?

I can't put weight on my ankle is it sprained?

You could have done one of many things. You could have pulled a muscle, sprained it, stressed a muscle or tendon, broken it, etc. The best thing you could do is to follow RICE (rest, ice, compression, elevate) and see a doctor as soon as you can.
