Every time you pull a muscle, it stretches it so it will hurt. Putting ice on it will help the muscles go back into its former position. You should put ice on your injured leg evey time you pull it, but it really depends on how much you have pulled it to determine whether or not to put ice on it.

Should you put heat or ice on a pulled muscle?

In the first 48 hours after a pulled muscle, it is generally recommended to apply ice to reduce inflammation and pain. After 48 hours, applying heat can help relax the muscles and improve blood flow, aiding in the healing process. However, it's always best to consult with a healthcare provider for personalized advice.

Am i strong for a 13 year old im 5'5 and can max bench 225 but now i pulled muscle and at school we max out next week i need to get to 245 abd make my pulled muscle better what do i do?

Eat plenty of protein and give the muscle time to rest (but don't leave it completely unused, do minor tasks with the injured arm otherwise it may become worse). If possible, put something warm on the muscle for maybe 10 minutes, and afterward, put ice a rag on the muscle, alternating with 10 minutes on and 10 minutes off. That's about all you can do. Also, where do you buy your steroids? 13 year olds shouldn't be able to bench that much weight or be that tall.
