Symptoms of inner thigh muscle strain

A strained muscle is called a tendon strain. Tendons and muscles are different. Muscles are connected to bones through tendons. Muscle strains heal relatively quickly, while tendon strains heal relatively slowly. In the past, there was a saying that it takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone. Modern science has also confirmed this. Generally, it takes three months for a broken bone to heal. If you strain the inner thigh muscles, you need to rest well, otherwise it will easily recur.
