A sprain is an injury to a ligament, while a strain is an injury to a muscle or tendon. Sprains are usually diagnosed through physical examination and imaging tests like X-rays or MRI. Treatment for sprains typically involves rest, ice, compression, and elevation (RICE), as well as physical therapy. Strains are diagnosed similarly and are also treated with RICE, along with pain medication and sometimes surgery for severe cases.

How quick should cancer be treated?

As soon as it is diagnosed - by the time cancer is diagnosed, it is usually necessary for it to be treated to avoid further harm being done. (i.e. for cancer to be noticed then diagnosed, it has usually progressed beyond the "let's leave it and see" stage. Otherwise it would not be noticable).
