Pulling a muscle or arm is actually very bad not saying that you need to consult a doctor but if worsens you should. A pulled muscle is bad at degrees for example if physically someone jerks yours arm while your arm was not in motion this can cause some long term side effects and can end up seriously injuring one of the four ligaments that go up your shoulder and can cause arthritus after done.

A severely torn muscle can be as painful as a broken bone and in some instances more difficult to heal. The tear occurs when the fibers of the muscle are ripped apart and bleed into the muscle compartment. All of a sudden you feel pain and lose muscle function. The blood in the muscle can inhibit healing and cause the formation of scar tissue.

You can tear a muscle anywhere along its length, including where the tendons attach muscle to bone.

Any time you have a bruise along the muscle mass resulting from an impact, you have some degree of muscle tear.

Both types of ruptures are very painful and can be serious because of the bleeding involved. How quickly you recover depends on the severity of your injury, the amount of bleeding and the amount of scar tissue formed

Immediately apply ice to the injured area for 20 minutes. This will further decrease the blood flow to the damaged muscle.

Do not apply heat or massage the muscle. Heat will increase blood flow to the area, further damaging the muscle. Massage causes additional trauma and interferes with the healing process
