Here's an east way to remember how to heal a sprain or strain
Minimize the damage of a muscle injury with the P.R.I.C.E. protocol
Sprains, strains, pulls and tears can happen with any vigorous activity.
But whatever the injury, it’s important to act quickly to minimize the damage and promote healing.
Use the P.R.I.C.E. protocol – an acronym for a first-aid treatment process that involves protection, rest, ice, compression and elevation.
Note: If swelling and pain persist for more than 48 hours, see your doctor.
