  • Aside from pain, if there’s redness, warmth, swelling, tenderness, exposed bone/muscle, bleeding, or a popping noise heard when you move, it’s best that you head directly to the hospital or a medical practitioner.

  • Treatments vary depending on the cause. On the one hand, some can be healed with rest and medication, while others may need surgery and physical therapy.
