It doesn't. You can sprain ligaments also.
A sprain is an injury in which a muscle is overstretched or torn. Tendinitis is an injury that occurs when a tendon becomes inflamed or torn. That's the difference between a muscle sprain and tendinitis.

A strain is an overstretched or "pulled" or torn muscle. a sprain is an overstretched or torn ligament (holds bones together at a joint), and a fracture is a crack, chip, break or crush of a bone.
An injury to a muscle or tendon is typically referred to as a strain or a sprain. A strain occurs when a muscle is stretched or torn, while a sprain occurs when a ligament is stretched or torn. These injuries can range from mild to severe, leading to pain, swelling, and reduced function in the affected area.
a sprain happens if a ligament is torn
A sprain (from the French espraindre - to wring) is an injury which occurs to ligaments caused by being stretched beyond their normal capacity and possibly torn. Muscular tears caused in the same manner are referred to as a strain. In cases where either ligament or muscle tissue is torn, immobilization and surgical repair may be necessary.

Yes, this is true that when ligaments reinforcing a joint which are excessively stretched or torn a sprain occurs.
No. A sprain is an injury to a ligament. It is possible, however, to strain a back muscle.
No, a torn ligament is a sprain. A sprain can happen when a ligament is overstretched. It can be caused by a twist or wrench. So a twisted ankle is a sprained ankle. A strain refers to when you tear or overstretch a muscle or tendon (which attach muscles to bones). This can be caused by a sudden stretch or extra effort. So a pulled hamstring is a strained hamstring.
