There is no set time for any strained muscle to heal, it is all dependent on the individual. It would be recommened to rest the strained muscle as much as possible as anything too strenuous will increase the length of recovery. There is a good five step process to remember called PRICE, this stands for: protection, rest, ice, compression & elevationhttp://www.wisegeek.com/how-should-i-treat-a-strained-muscle.htm Go to the above link for a helpful guide on how to treat a strained muscle.
