Muscle tears, or strains, typically occur when excessive force or stress is placed on the muscle, often beyond its capacity to stretch or contract. It often occurred through sudden stretching, heavy lifting, or explosive movements. Acute injuries can happen during activities like sprinting or jumping, while chronic injuries may result from overuse and insufficient recovery. Poor mechanics, such as improper technique and muscle imbalances, can also increase the risk of tears.
Shoulder impingement occurs when the tendons or bursa in the shoulder get pinched under a bony part of the shoulder blade, leading to pain, especially when raising the arm. It's common in people who perform repetitive overhead activities, such as athletes or workers with jobs that require lifting or reaching.
