What Sprains frequently occur in the while strains are common in the areas?

Sprains frequently occur in the ankle, knee, and wrist due to their involvement in various activities and movements. On the other hand, strains are common in the muscles of the back, hamstrings, and quadriceps, often resulting from overexertion or improper lifting techniques. Both injuries can cause pain and limit mobility, but their underlying mechanisms differ, with sprains affecting ligaments and strains affecting muscles or tendons.

How do fractions and sprains differ?

Fraction are mathematical and sprains are health related. Now Fractures are broken bones and Sprains occur when a body part is twisted past the normal range of motion and tendons are stretched beyond their normal capability and the body will usually respond with swelling and pain so nothing is broken like fractures. Fractures usually are very painful and you will feel pain that does not go away. Sprains will hurt and sometimes a lot but the pain goes away little by little and so does the swelling. Fractures are usually detected by X-rays. Sprains can't be scene on a standard X-ray because it is soft tissue damage.
