Hi can anyone tell me what exactly happens when you pull a muscle. I must have pulled one in my leg (maybe my ham-string) and it is painful! I've had this pain for two days now. Just wondering how long it takes to heal, and whats happens when u pull a muscle! Thanks.

It's an actual tear in the muscle. When I was about 16, I injured the entire muscle system that wraps around your rib cage. It tore like an apple being peeled. It took months to recover.

Ususally it recovers on it's own, though. For your leg, I'd just rest it as much as possible. If it doesn't heal, try a sport medicine doctor, or physical therapist.
